I know its hard to find things to talk about

$450.00

Artwork Details

MediumOil, Canvas, Ready to hangDimensions60cm (W) x 60cm (H) x 3.8cm (D)

This painting is from a series of work I exhibited in Adelaide, in 2025. The series was exhibited under the name “Clang”



The works in this series were tongue in cheek reflections of the artist. They show light hearted humour and staring at the sun sincerity. This body of work reflected on a recent car accident I had, putting me in hospital for six days and leaving with a bad heart, and my experience as an artist practicing for over a decade. Resulting with work on themes of anxiety surrounding issues of the self, the body, urbanisation, climate, and artistry. 



This work is named after a poem it reads:



“I know it’s hard to find things to talk about
But can we sit here and give it a try
I like these kinds of nights
And I know I see you all the time
But this is sort of just what I like”
