kunanyi Ground

kunanyi Ground is a work that examines the textures, stories & pneuma of the mountain. As my eyes travel across the view of nipaluna (Hobart) and beyond I was drawn to the landscape at my feet. I was interested in the scale of a landscape here, that within the broader environment around me an intimate scene can appear just as vast. This work translates how I see the forms of rocks, branches, habitat and tracks of land in an abstracted visual language. I am exploring how my mark making can be an extension of understanding the physical and intangible elements of place.

Chloe is an emerging artist making abstract works inspired by the Tasmanian landscape. Her work is motivated by and reflects both the vastness and intimacy of place. Growing up along Kanamaluka/Tamer River has provided an endless source for artistic exploration. While the landscapes of my childhood occur frequently I am also drawn to various landscapes across Lutruwita including the southern coastline and the majestic beauty of Kunanyi Mt. Wellington above Nipaluna Hobart where I am currently based.
