"I met Yuge and David Bromley through Gallery One where David and I exhibit. I spent some time at David’s Chapel Street studio and immediately hit it off with Yuge. We share a similar history, and our life stories feel strangely interconnected and related. Yuge comes from communist China and I grew up in communist East Germany. Our parents left their home countries in the same year (1987) to seek a better life in the West, with Yuge’s parents making their way to New Zealand, and my mother heading to Sweden. We both sought professional careers before giving it all up for art." – @kathrinlonghurst

Whisky Oscar Whisky! Buckle up for the new exhibition by Kathrin Longhurst. This new squadron of powerful women shows Longhurst embracing a more introspective and compassionate perspective. Exhibition dates: 14 July to 8 August " I have arrived at a turning point after realising we rather need to focus on valuing female qualities of caring, introspection and nurturing, instead of forcing women to be more ‘manly’. We still live in a male-centric world; hence we cannot drop our armour yet. But we can allow ourselves to embrace femininity and female qualities. A value shift like that would have far-reaching consequences for the well-being of all people, making the world a kinder more inclusive place, especially when it comes to the remuneration of employees in caring and nurturing professions (such as in health-care, schooling, service providing) and also in the way we approach policy-making and governing.

These highly textured and messy backgrounds require a solid underpainting. This one is a duotone ochre and blue. I’m in love and don’t think I will colourise it. Should I?

How are you all doing? Pendulum swinging from sad

How are you all doing? Pendulum swinging from sad to hopeful and back? Here work tends to bring a sense of normalcy. I started to add rich textures to my latest paintings. It feels satisfying seeing the layers build up. Much slower process but worth it. New works available from Flinders Lane Gallery. Contact @flinderslanegallery for more info.
