This exhibition will include paintings and drawings from the artist’s earliest work to the very latest new work. Many of the works illustrate the visual form of storytelling that has become a common theme in Rachel’s practice, a documentary style of visual historic referencing and an alternative way to convey history in a visual format.
Raised in rural Western Australia, Rachel‘s painting practice spans fifteen years. She has exhibited in Perth, Melbourne and London and been short-listed for several awards. Her painting, generally figurative work in oil on linen, has been described as technically and conceptually astute, and is recognised for its distinct, emotive style. This is very much evident throughout the body of work that will be on display.
Rachel Coad will be in residence on the studio floor in the gallery from 7 – 28 August, Tuesday to Sunday.
