Resident Artist - Yvonne Levenston

Yvonne Levenston

With the environment being battered by fire, floods and drought, my work is influenced by visually interrogating the cause and effect. In my current work I am exploring our closest relative - the great apes, researching and understanding their diminishing environment and what seems like their inevitable extinction! I feel I have broken away from my strict graphic design training - true perfection no longer restricts my art making. When I create, I am interested in the imperfections, exaggerations and distortions that are created by exploring and combining experimental and traditional methods.

Art is not what you see, but what you make others see. Edgar Degas
