Vexta is back with a new solo show up at the Edwina Corlette Gallery in Brisbane, this time delving deep into the structure of the universe and how we are all connected, with In-Between worlds. As always, this next show will be a whole range of creatively inspired works spread over the gamut of installations, sculpture and paintings.
“A suite of new work examining our relationship to ourselves, evolution, the mysterious interconnectedness of all living things and the atomic particles that hold it all together…clustered… but possibly ready to shatter into a million pieces, transcend and reform into the the new… in the next world, at any moment.
Sydney-based artist Vexta will have her third solo exhibition at the gallery in April 2012. Vexta has been making artworks since the mid 2000’s and is best known for her street paintings and wheat-pastes, which draw from cultural visual debris, a self-taught aesthetic and an ongoing exploration of mixed media and printmaking techniques explored through painting.
Her psychedelic, neon-drenched images are influenced by a personal symbolism and a greater urban mythology which connect the dots between the personal and the universal, our waking lives and the dreams beneath them and between an acute cultural commentary and beauty.
Vexta’s work has been shown in exhibitions across Australia and is held in numerous public & private collections, including the National Gallery of Australia, Artbank and the University of Queensland Art Museum.She frequently travels and her works can be seen on walls in Sydney, Melbourne, Paris, Berlin, London, San Francisco and Bogota.”
