The Painting Story
"Dream State" is an enchanting reverie, a vivid exploration of the space between reality and imagination. This painting, with its mesmerising cobalt blues and ethereal, butterfly-like abstract shapes, feels like a journey into the depths of the subconscious. It’s as if the very essence of dreams is captured in these fluid forms, each one a delicate whisper of transformation and flight. The vibrant cobalt hues evoke a sense of wonder and mystery, inviting us to lose ourselves in the boundless expanse of our own minds. This piece is a celebration of the dreamer's world, where the boundaries of reality blur and the fantastical takes flight, creating a space of endless possibilities and profound beauty.
Paradox - Solo Exhibition at Art Images Gallery
Part of a collection of works from Amica's solo Paradox at Art Images Gallery, Adelaide. Amica extends on her familiar sensibility for working with colour and form, to produce works with an elevated energetic charge. Though seemingly consistent with previous work, these new explorations consistently extend a sense of the sublime that captures and amplifies an essence, perhaps a metaphysical quality that transcends simple explanation, something that explores the concept of ‘self’ through notions of expansion and growth - while simultaneously engaging in a return trip to the core of being.
Either way, the works operate with a subtle newness. They introduce the next phase of exploration evidencing that Amica’s practice, as with nature, is in a gradual yet constant state of change. A living, breathing expression of life and the mystery of creation.
