Nature Fray, Salt Grass Lace

By Liz Wickramasinghe

ARTIST STATEMENT

Liz Wickramasinghe’s richly layered paintings explore the landscapes, ecologies and botanica from her local environments of the Wadawurrung, Gulidjan and Gaduband countries of the Bellarine, Surf Coast and Otway regions of Victoria, as well other significant places she has visited throughout her life. Early memories of making things such as textiles, sewing and collage have strongly informed her process-based approach in making her works.
