Robby Mckenzie | Life After Service


My career in Defence and work with Veterans has inspired me to reflect on my life after service, and the lives of others, especially when that service is part of your identity. This exhibition is my reflection on veteran’s existence after they take off the uniform.


Creating the works for this show, I have enjoyed trying different techniques and tools. A small brayer has become my favourite “brush”. It has allowed me to drop focus from having exact lines and ratio, to just creating with a sense of fun and exploration.
