Participating Artists: Paul Lacey

Venue:
Greenhill Galleries
6 Gugeri Street, Claremont WA, 6010

Description: This series of paintings 'Black & Blue'‚ had me digging deeper into a long standing interest in naive & outsider art...the uncensored eccentricities from the subconcious that have universal themes & expressions that are often direct and unhindered by intellect.

The environment the works have been incubated & produced in can best be described as rural fugliness relieved by art music & books...referred to in titles and the portrait & still-life subjects-in this case sculptures and furniture by Ondrej Mares and Susan's pinata/calavera sculptures inspired by Mexican Day of the Dead Festival.)

'fugliness nudges the unlovely into a realm of comic virtue. Once it's owned up to, it's something to laugh about, even celebrate'.
Tim Winton in 'Small Town 2009.
