Land 2021
Land is the broader concept of where we live where ever that may be.
This latest painting is a celebration of the Australian landscape, with its rich tones and textual /sculptural layers.
William Holt is an established Melbourne Artist who creates contemporary abstract paintings.
"The vitality of the paint application is of pure life-force as the impelling textual
surface of the canvas attracts you in an overflowing play of creation."
It is not my intention to paint a representation of the visible world although what you can encounter is a vision of sky, sea and earth in its transient imaginary moment of formation. What I enjoy most is Art that communicates the unseen experience of a mythical experience from the light and height of illumination to the depths of its energetic limitless core. In some ways the natural world is a reflection of our essential eternal being, and through painting it’s not just a case of projecting an image but the physical presence of true power.
