On December 2nd – 5th 2021, The Other Art Fair Sydney returned with an in-person Fair at The Cutaway in Barangaroo. Over 4 days, the 100+ artists showed new bodies of work, collaborated, and shared their practices with us — but just because the Fair is over doesn’t mean you can’t still snag a beautiful piece, or learn about the artists! Right here you’ll find blogs that uncover more about processes and themes our artists are working with, check out who the Fair Director has spotlighted this week, and shop curated collections. You can even buy directly from the artists, wherever you are in the world.
Marie’s is a Sydney-based painter whose body of work “Back to Antiquity” reflects on genuine human connection, memory and identity.
These themes are explored through the lens of the Renaissance and Neoclassical sculpture as well as subtle chromatic relationships that explore her fascination with the emotive power of colour. Through layering, masking, revealing and obscuring, the author grapples with the themes of vulnerability and impermanence which are central to her work.
The result is breathtaking work bursting with energy and vibrancy.
“If you can express it with words, then why paint it? We should reserve this medium for capturing the feelings and visions that have not yet been conquered by language.”
