ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is deeply connected to place, reflecting the landscapes, people and stories shaping my home on the edge of the Barmah National Park in Northern Victoria, Australia. Living on a farm at the door of the forest I am surrounded by the shifting dynamics of drought, flood and fire- elements that regularly appear in my work.

As an internationally exhibited and award-winning artist, I draw on over 15 years of experience as an art quilter, now expanding into painting, printing and collage on paper and board. My practice is informed by active participation in groups such as the Superb Parrot Project and Nathalia Wildflower group.

I am an explorer of the interaction between media and subject, inspired by the interplay of natural and cultural elements in the place I call home. Sharing this passion with others through art is integral to my practice, as I strive to inspire connection and dialogue with diverse audiences.

Hello Linden

I have been thinking a lot about your talk yesterday and also about upcoming workshops. I think I could really learn some new techniques from you. Do you have any workshops coming up, I know I would have to travel but seem to do lots of that, anyway. My email is prhawkey@bigpond.com.

  Hello Laurie,
  Thank you for your interest. I usually exhibit in Vic Quilters events and other competitions. I am working towards a solo exhibition in 2015, probably in Melbourne. Information will be on this website. Linden.

Hi Lynden, I have seen a number of your quilts in various places in recent years without realising you lived so close to where I grew up [Kyabram]. I particularly like the flower quilt which you and the family are standing in front of here. When in Ky this weekend I visited the display of your work and was blown away by the detail in your quilts. Very inspiring. I am planning to use you and the photos that I took at the exhibition as the focus for my year 9 Fabric Art class this week. I would love to do a workshop with you in the future.
gorgeous work,
Ros S
