Martina Latimer is a Brisbane-based multi-disciplinary artist. She did an Australia first at the ABC National Radio "The Art Show" sewing live. At the core of her practice lies her sustained interest in the visual articulation of the unspoken, to ultimately create works that can speak on their own. She is interested in understanding the world around her, its people, relationships, and the intricacies of daily life.
She currently works predominantly in oil painting and print making exploring the layered complexities of life and the natural world. Long periods of experimenting in the studio, observing nature and reflecting on social dynamics inform her artistic process. She enjoys working in layered compositions referencing the intricacy of life through materiality and simplicity. Her work aims to engage with the viewer through slowing down to take a closer look. Latimer has worked for ten years in textiles as a pattern designer and teacher of contemporary patchwork before moving on to painting and print making. She works from her studio in West End/Brisbane. |
