LOVE AND DEVOTION
JOANNA YANNARIS
27 MAY-19 JUNE EXHIBITION ENDS SUN 19 JUN 2:30PM
I have been exploring themes of Love & Devotion in writings from 19th Century American Literature, Photography and Abstract Expressionist Painting from the 1950’s, Australian Music in the 1970’s, Greek Mythology and Jungian Philosophy of the Shadow.
The result is series of large abstract oil based paintings. Evocative of colour, gesture and movement. Each painting contains the same layers experienced in the act of love and devotion such as adoration, care, repetition, ritual and dignity.
