Artwork Description

This is a typical urban streetscene, with one of those never ending 'closing down sale' shops, set in Brunswick, Melbourne, near to where I live. You can see the influence of German Expressionism, which I love.

Artist Bio

Paula Maggs 98 artworks | 4 Sold

Paula Maggs is an expressionist artist living and working in Melbourne. Her intuitive painting style conveys intense emotional states through colour and gestural mark making.
Maggs seeks to utilize the materiality of the paint to express psychological states. Her underlying concern is to dig beneath the facade of what it means to be human.
She completed a Master of Fine Art (with distinction) at RMIT in 2023.
Maggs has exhibited in both group and solo shows around Melbourne, as well as participating in a residency for Melbourne Fashion Week in 2021.
Previous study includes a Bachelor of Design Arts (with distinction) in 2021 from LCI Melbourne.
