Since being discovered via Instagram, Rebecca Long has been hailed by various galleries and collectors as an 'artist to watch'. With 35,000 highly-engaged Instagram followers, she now pursues invitations to exhibit in galleries from Melbourne to London, where her works have sold out. While her signature style, described by her as 'psychodynamic' is variously described as haunting, evocative and therapeutic, her diverse explorations depicting hidden facets of the human condition and experience often equally convey a delightful and disarming humour, which moderates emotional intensity. In parallel to her quest to capture pure experience, the former magazine editor and 'wordsmith' (who discovered painting through the frustration of being unable to convey the fullness of inner experience verbally) eschews intermediary tools such as brushes for a primary practice of finger painting. Also reflecting dominant themes of revealing and unmasking, her technique concentrates on removal of paint to reveal images.
