Repost • @maitlandregionalartgallery The face of migrant and refugee Australia is diverse and complex, as Kathrin Longhurst brings to bear in her stunning series of portraits for the exhibition Settled/Unsettled currently on display at MRAG. One of those captivating portraits is of Tamil pictured here. If you love this artwork visit MRAG to see all ten of Longhurst’s paintings and discover each of these women’s harrowing stories.

“In 2015, Tamil fled Malaysia with her adopted sister due to religious persecution. On arrival in Australia, Tamil worked on a farm to survive and when the season finished, she came to Sydney where she came across The Salvation Army Church in Auburn. Pastors Paul and Robbin Moulds helped her settle and gave her enormous support with housing, training in new skills and in finding work.
She met her husband Darren Baker at the ‘Salvos’ Auburn and they were married there on 21 January 2018 surrounded by her new community. Her future plans include serving the community and also living a happy and fulfilling life in Australia.”

Thanks for the fabulous editorial @salgear in latest @artguideau and thanks @flinderslanegallery for lining it all up.

Posted @withregram • @artguideau The women in Kathrin Longhurst’s paintings tell a story of bold defiance. Among them you will find the adventurer, the trailblazer, and the fighter, but no wallflower. “All through art history we’ve had men painting women as decorative objects,” she says. “[I’m] reclaiming that domain of painting women, and painting them in a way that is empowering, where other women can relate and see themselves. Because what you can’t see you can’t be.”

‘Women to the Front’ at Flinders Lane Gallery coincides with International Women’s Day, and Longhurst hopes the audience will take away “a renewed interest in womens’ stories, recognising their resilience and their strength. And celebrating them for their incredible contributions to society”.

From the exhibition essay by @its_katemcauley

“With this exhibition, the artist defiantly places her subjects on the frontlines of this battlefield. Featuring her signature large-scale canvases, deft skills with the brush, and a bold view of the feminine archetype as both nurturer and warrior, she weaves a common thread of resilience and survival.“

Very humbling to have my work referenced in a rese

Very humbling to have my work referenced in a research paper and published in a journal halfway across the world by Chilean Dr Leopoldo Tillería Aqueveque, Ph.D. The article appeared this week in the magazine Comunicación & Hombre (WOS index ), from the Francisco de Vittoria University of Madrid. The article is titled Una diosa ancestral y creadora. La belleza en el siglo xxi como el resplandecer de lo salvador.
Humbled.
