About the event

CONTENT

In this unusual floral workshop, you will develop your own visual lexicon to create your personal vision of Australian native flowers.

You will be introduced to ink painting to create some stunning backgrounds on which you will later stamp and collage floral patterns you have created yourself. You will  discover how to build a personal way of rendering flowers through the use of white and black ink as well as gold leaf.

By the end of the 6 hours workshop you will have produced a series of A4, A3 or even A2 paintings, on watercolour paper and textured paper with your own floral art

Born in France, Sofie Dieu’s first encounter with art was through church. With a penchant for ritual and spirituality, the artist is best known for her fragile, sombre, and sometimes violent ink paintings and textile works.

 

Poetic and humanist, her practice draws on her journeys to China and Australia. She explores how identity and memory fluctuate according to their immediate environment. Landscapes, people, secrecy, healing, and the dichotomy between light and darkness are some of her recurring themes.

  

Multi-art prizes and award finalist, her work was included in the Sydney North Art Prize, Waterhouse Natural Science prize and the Contemporary Art Award amongst others. In 2016, she worked on the Camperdown Cemetery installation for Sydney Biennale. In 2017, her work will be shown during Vivid and Mental Health Month in Sydney.
