Embedded Portrait: Hands | Anne-Marie Cullinan



The exhibition is a collection of hand-portrait paintings using a contemporary fresco process developed by the artist. A handmade textural plaster ground is created with ochres and mineral watercolour paints, then sculpted and painted upon. The ochre colours of the NT and historical Renaissance frescoes inspire the colour palette. The choice of subjects reflects the multicultural Darwin community. The paintings reveal the subject’s movement and energy through flowing, embedded colours, sanded and selectively eroded with water to create a timeless, tactile surface.
