Lunchalot Series: Recently displayed at Art Fair Melbourne 2009 - I am excited about the concept behind these works. For some years now I have been working with the space from Melbourne Central, an interior space which encompasses a huge area encloses the railway station and a large shopping complex. Built around and completely covering an old shot tower the building has a truly unique flavour. What I love about it is the constant passage of people in this space. They cross the area on their way to and from work to the station and shops, families meet for lunch and coffee and there is an endless changing landscape in this space. I have created many works around this theme but never quite achieved the interest it held for me as one piece was never enough. Working on porcelain, paper and print I finally arrived at a series of 16 oil paintings.... now I have no frame to deal with and I can move the paintings close to one another thus creating the extended patterns and sense of change so integral to this space. Finally I was getting close to what I wanted. The next step was the truly exciting one. Never being good at repetition, I looked to new technology to take me to the next space. Digital imaging and printing processes have enabled me to truly explore the excitment of this place. Taking images from the paintings and putting them together in different combinations - Voila! - a whole world opened out. Now we are truly into the "Lunchalot series". You cannot buy the original 'painting' BUT each work is an original image because any combination only appears once. Groups of 2 - 42 (or more) are possible. Awkward spaces are easily catered for and the patterns that emerge are truly fabulous. The Lunchalot Series is out there. Do you want to know more? Lunchalot Series Contact Ev
