Artwork Description

Inspired by summer thunderstorms in Bloomington Indiana and soft bunny grass against a stormy sky, the offset triangles create windows to the beautiful and complex details behind the façade using origami gold wave paper.
'Can you see into my soul' is a 6 week labour of love, using over 1,900 individual triangles to tell the story of what can be going on behind a structured facade.
The pattern wraps around both sides, and is finished with gold paint detailing across the top and bottom edges.

Artist Bio

Liz is an Australian artist based in Black Rock, Victoria, specialising in geometric abstract and mixed media, using acrylic and origami paper on canvas.

Deeply influenced by the remote natural landscape surrounding her childhood home in Northern Tasmania, Liz also studied the Japanese language as a child and draws on her passion for Japanese culture through inclusion of origami paper and gold leaf as a reference to Kintsugi (the art of repairing broken pottery).

Liz’s technique involves drafting then filling geometric angles, progressively creating a gradient of depth and movement. She uses painting as a form of meditative expression and seeks to create pieces that inspire calmness and evoke an appreciation for the beauty of nature.

“I love to consider how light reacts in different environments. The geometric angles are intended to convey the strength of the subject and my appreciation for simplification and structure.”
