Artwork Description
Artist Bio
Elwood Moore is a professional artist [painter] based in Melbourne, Australia. Moore works in a variety of media including oil paint, acrylic and print across a spectrum of traditional painting genres, including; abstract, still life, landscape, and portraiture.
His work draws on more than 30 years experience living, working within and closely observing Australian culture. 'Having worked as a commercial designer in graphic design and also as an architect, I have an ongoing fascination with Australia’s complex culture. I am interested in exploring the unique multicultural conditions that exist here and at the same time exploring my place within that context. Some of these themes include; our relationship with the landscape, the built environment and human-made objects that surround us and how our inherited European heritage influences have shaped our experience of our physical environment.'
'My attraction to the medium of painting stems from it’s directness and immediacy, but mostly it’s tactility. The act of applying paint to a surface has always felt very natural to me. And although I have explored numerous other mediums, I can’t help but return to this most visceral and plastic of mediums. Through years of experimentation, and much trial-and-error I have developed a process of building up a surface in layers that I push and drag with brushes and palette knives. This visual vocabulary of brushwork, layering and editing allows me to express myself effectively. I work on the assumption that as long as I engage emphatically with the process of making then the work will resonate with others.'
