ARTIST STATEMENT

Patti is a Medway-based artist, living in the Southern Highlands, committed to exploring relationships between cultural recollections, memory and colour connection through her printmaking, painting and plein air work. Her thought- provoking visual language speaks beyond boundaries and captures diverse view of her surroundings. Patti’s mission is to explore the importance of local richness, celebrating and interpreting the beauty of everyday life. By delving into our collective memories, Patti intends to spark emotion and connection in her art. Through expressive colours and bold marks, she invites us to join her on a journey of cultural recollection and memory-prompting us to reflect on our role in society and reflect on the meaning of our collective identity.
