Di Cubitt
Di Cubitt is a visual artist originally from the UK., living in Perth, Western Australia since the nineties.
“The key concepts behind my work explore ideas about the transience of life using elements taken from the natural world. My work explores ideas about nature and the environment, our interaction and relationship with it and our response and to it.
The constant changes in our environment and elements of nature may move slowly or rapidly, violently or calmly, the method chosen to explore these ideas reflected in the final works that emerge. My paintings sit somewhere between process and representation, aiming to capture the continual flow of change within my subject matter. Whether liquid paint flowing across a canvas or the slow building of a surface through glazing and brushwork, I aim to evoke in my paintings a sense of the passage of time, memories of things seen or sensed, a continuous cycle of events in an ever changing world.”
