Description
Femme is an exhibition featuring single works made together by two artists from very different creative backgrounds.
Photographer Natasja Kremers and illustrator Angela Mitchell wish to challenge the concept of the artist as a sole creator pursuing a singular vision. By collaborating, they instead create a co-dependency between the photographed female form and interwoven illustration, whilst simultaneously retaining each artist’s unique expression in their own medium.
The printed and painted artworks of Femme share gritty textural photography intertwined with delicate illustration in coloured and metallic inks. Themes of femininity, fashion, flora and fauna are explored; but it is theprocess of working together that has predominantly defined the exhibition’s outcome. At every stage, Kremers and Mitchell focused on how the narrative would extend beyond their own part in the project – from exploratory sketches to photographing the muses to developing the mediums in order to integrate successfully as complete works.
In addition, the exhibition will feature a film by Natasja Kremers, with animated illustration and music composed by emerging Perth composer Olivia Davies.
