Metka Skrobar
The Pilbara, Western Australia
Acrylic/mixed media on linen
As an artist, the unsurpassable diversity of the Australian landscape has always intrigued and inspired me. Prompting numerous travels to study and explore the remote outback regions of Australia, this reflects my experiences. Land and aerial expeditions revealed opportunities to discover the true nature of remote Australian territory through the intensity of textures, colours and habitat. Most recently seeing the devastating effects of the drought on the people who live and work there, has prompted me to create this artwork. Translating the diverse repertoire on to canvas, I employed a combination of media including acrylic, and collage to best describe my experiences to capture the nature of patterns from outback.
