Transference
|
Through four years of studying a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree at the
University of Auckland, Kirsty has developed paint techniques to create
her works. Resene paints have been used throughout her study. The strength,
plasticity and durable nature of the paint and its material substance
in liquid and solid form constantly intrigues Kirsty as to what can
be made with it.
A recent work, Transference was recognised in the Wallace Trust Art
Awards. The pieces are all constructed entirely from Resene Lumbersider
waterborne satin paint. Resene paint is a principal component of her
art and is excessively layered to create objects. Many litres are used
to build up form in those layers that enable the objects to exist beyond
their support. In Transference, colours such as Resene Apple Blossom,
Resene Cabaret, Resene Candy Floss and Resene Mandy have been used on
top of a white base.
