ARTIST STATEMENT
"Seeking a way is an exploration of an in-betweenness. A state of being that feels vulnerable, unsteady and yet determined. Each work shows a force of varying strengths, from a gentle pleading to a surging chorus. Created in the magical transition that is pregnancy, the works take on the presence of an undulating unknown. Through a sense of movement and sway, each mark soaked into the fibres of silk serve as reminders of the beauty in the turbulent moments of growth and change. Seeking a way is an honouring of the moment your body is no longer just your body, but rather a home for someone other than yourself."
BIO
Loralee Jade’s painting practice is centred around her emotional landscape. Leaning into the experiences of her past personal journey Jade uses the processes of painting as a tool to renew her ability to appreciate and respond to complex emotional and aesthetic influences. Jade returns to painful moments, not to recount the traumatic effects, but to feel them with a renewed heart around which to restructure sensibility. Jade's works on silk offer a fluttering dichotomy between vulnerability and gratification reminiscent of the undulating emotional stages one faces when dealing with trauma.
