The Healing Power of Colour: A Journey Through Art at The Other Art Fair Sydney, 8 - 11 May. ♡

This May, I’m thrilled to return to exhibiting at art fairs—this time in my adopted hometown of Sydney. :o)

The Other Art Fair, held at the White Bay Cruise Terminal, will feature around 130 independent artists, making it a truly special event. Come and meet me! At the fair, I’ll be showcasing my latest artworks and poems, exploring the profound emotional resonance of colour. As an abstract artist deeply attuned to the therapeutic qualities of colour, I invite you to discover how hues can evoke, soothe, and transform our inner landscapes.

Introducing Symphony of Life

I’m especially excited to unveil my newest piece, Symphony of Life, completed just in time for the fair. This artwork marks the beginning of my new collection, Wellness Whispers, and I’m delighted to share at least one piece with you, along with selections from my latest compilations. This vibrant work embodies the culmination of my recent explorations into colour’s capacity to heal and inspire. Accompanying this piece is a poem from my upcoming collection, Wellness Whispers, offering a lyrical reflection on the themes woven into the artwork.

The Wellness Whispers collection is an intimate dialogue between colour, emotion, and transformation. Each painting reflects life’s fluid journey—a gentle whisper to the soul, guiding it toward healing, renewal, and inner balance. The essence of life evokes moments of joy, harmony, and restoration. 

A Collection Rooted in Liberty

While I had hoped to present three new works from the newest collection along with the Liberty collection works, the creative process had its timeline. Recognising that some pieces needed more time to mature, I decided to focus on those ready to be shared. I’m pleased to present a selection from my latest collections, each piece resonates with the themes of freedom and emotional expression that continue to guide my work.

The Emotional Resonance of Colour

Colour is more than a visual experience; it’s a language of the soul. For me, colour is my mother tongue. From an early age, I have been captivated by its ability to convey emotion and meaning. My home reflects this passion—you won’t find much grey or black, as I gravitate towards hues that uplift and inspire.

In art therapy, specific colours are known to influence our emotional states. Warm tones like red and orange can energise and uplift, while cool tones like blue and green offer calm and solace. My work seeks to harness these qualities, creating spaces for reflection and healing.

Among the spectrum, gold and white hold a special place in my palette, such as iridescent gold - my signature colour. To me, these two hues represent light, positivity, and spiritual connection. Gold symbolises understanding and luck, often associated with spiritual mastery and illumination. White embodies purity and peace, signifying a high level of consciousness and an important life purpose. Together, these hues remind me that there is always light at the end of the tunnel, guiding us towards hope and renewal.

Intuitive Art and the Fusion of Poetry

Intuitive art speaks when words have no form or shape. Yet, my poetry, born from the depths of creation or just before capturing an emotion, captures the essence of the work in lush hues—an eloquent extension of the visual, where language becomes another canvas of expression. Some of my paintings will be accompanied by my poetry at this art fair; there are a few I also share on my website. Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to publish them all!

So, come and join me at the fair—I would love to meet you! I invite you to visit my booth at The Other Art Fair Sydney to experience these pieces firsthand. Let’s explore together how colour can serve as a conduit for emotional well-being and artistic connection.

If you missed out on my complimentary tickets earlier this month, you can still purchase tickets to the fair here.
