Our next meeting is hosted by Ella Mucha at Me Art Space Gallery
We are thrilled to announce that our next meeting will take place at Me Art Space gallery, and its owner, Ella Mucha, will share with us some insights regarding her newest exhibition ‘Whispers and Abstraction’.
Polish born, Australian Artist Ella Mucha studied and worked in the fashion industry for almost 25 years. By 2005 she had found her true calling as an artist and started to paint professionally from her studio in Sydney. Oscillating between abstraction and landscape her work is offering a dreamlike take on contemporary Australian Landscape.
Ella Mucha Statement
While I draw inspiration on specific location, my work is open to a range of possible interpretations and represent my very personal response to Australian nature and Landscape. It relates more to state of mind, mood and feelings then a tangible place. My landscape paintings have the ability to create an emotional backdrop for the memories of places I’ve been to and places I’m still going to visit. They connect my soul, my lifestyle and nature.
My landscapes are often heavily textured, painted with a little attention to detail.
My abstractions are all about colour, movement and light. There is no room for textures. It’s my personal link to the contemporary world of expression.
Body of Work:
“Soft Brush” – contemporary landscapes
“Free Form” – abstract
Currently I work in acrylic and mixed media on canvas, board and paper form my studio at me. Artspace in St Leonards, Sydney.
