ARTIST STATEMENT
The terrible Tsunami has inspired
me to paint these two paintings.
In 'Tsunami Rage' calmness of the
seashells opposite the rage in seawaves, show the beginning of the
tragedy.
In the 'Victims of Tsunami" a
victim emerges with the creatures of the deep sea, and the hand is
lifted in the last effort to get the help.
The
Contemporary Art Society of Victoria (Inc.) is a non-profit
organisation, run on a voluntary basis by artists, for artists, and
the Society has a long history of supporting and fostering artists -
particularly emerging artists and those from regional
Australia.
