Remains of mourning by Loralee jade in Hobart

Remains of Mourning from Loralee’s recent series draws upon these ideas This piece is less structured than others in Reflection pond and it manages to be equally dramatic and peaceful From afar a clay pink dominates the canvas but as you draw closer a rich diversity of colour emerges Layers of sky blue and terracotta streak gently across the canvas as though the rain had exposed what was underneath the surface Dark velvet-mauve shapes float abstractly through the work creating different images in the negative space and between the shapes themselves as your mind reaches for the familiar Oil on linen 16 x 20” Frame braided linen dyed with avocado
