Moments of Improvisation by Robbi Wymer
"The exhibited works are my struggle with remaining in the present, rather than existing in thoughts of my past or future.
The eye, in many of the paintings, symbolises the desire to see the world through a visual lens, of being aware of what is right
in front of me. It is also a documentation of my imagination and the intuition and spontaneity of form and colour.
My art has a surreal quality, most of the paintings have a bird entwined in the flowing forms, and these birds are frequent visitors
to my house. I live close to the Woronora River where cockatoos, magpies, kookaburras, pelicans, cormorants, cranes and parrots are in
abundance. I could not ignore their presence, as their laughing, screeching and warbling, drifted into my home studio.
My experience as a textile designer influences my work. The patterns, swirls, shapes and images, the flowing lines and the colours
are reminiscent of the way I construct textiles for the fashion industry. This time I have embraced the traditional platform of the canvas
rather than the computer but I really miss the quick key for erasing mistakes. The freedom of the brush, however has been liberating and
allows for more imaginative improvisations.
I am currently studying art therapy at the University of Western Sydney. My study about
the power of art to heal has led me to create some of these paintings. I believe that through creating art and reflecting on the art
products and processes, people can increase awareness of self and others, cope with symptoms, stress, and traumatic experiences and
enjoy the life-affirming pleasures of making art."
Exhibition will be officially opened on Wednesday 25th March by a special guest at 7pm. Exhibition ends Tuesday 7 April, 09
