The lyrical monotone works of Australian Artist, Kylie Fogarty (born 1974), are a poetic response to atmospheric explorations expressed through expressive mark making practices. Intrinsic to her creation process, drawing provides Fogarty the freedom of expression, in turn providing interpretation, consideration and exploration of her chosen subject. Utilising various drawing tools, including bamboo reed pens, traditional dip pens and contemporary pigmented pens to convey her observations, the evocative and alluring works embrace the use of a limited palette.
Statement
Contemplating the atmosphere and connection to our current environment, I have employed the use of mark making to explore and embrace the narrative felt in the ever-changing nature of our world today.
