MENAGERIE – CONTEMPORARY INDIGENOUS SCULPTURE


I visited this current exhibition thats on till January at the museum and recommend anyone in Perth should do the same

There is some really beautiful work there and I enjoyed reading each artists statement
The love and appreciation they have for wildlife and nature is really something we could all learn alot from.

One of the many artists I admire

I frequent Borders quite alot and treat it more like a library then a store due to my poor student status. Anyway I was looking through the journal New American Paintings and came across some lovely work by an artist called Danielle Rante.

Although I am studying illustration at the moment I really want to experiment more with this sort of art. I find it so beautiful and love the fact that every person can look at it and get something different from it due to its abstract nature. The paper, the shapes, the colours, the marks are all so lovely in my eyes.
