Pacific Parade
acrylic and oil on canvas
Pacific Parade is a work from my continuing ‘Seaburbia’ series exploring the cultural memory and heritage of the quintessential beach house.
With rapid change to the beachfront landscape of the Gold Coast, only a handful of these original beach houses remain.
Up close and devoid of props, attention is drawn to the architecture, pattern and repetition, inviting a second look at the often taken for granted.
The subject of this work is ‘for now’ a still-surviving example that lives and breathes nostalgia for summer’s past and the value of a simple life.
Size: 102 × 122 cm
$9000
