eScapism by Chrissy Dwyer

by Cell Art Space
(109 Lake St Cairns, Ergon Energy Building Window Front)

eScapsim is a series of acrylic paintings of “scapes” – landscapes, seascapes, skyscapes, and cityscapes – illustrating the essence of Far North Queensland scenery.

The paintings have a contemporary feel, which employs vibrant colours and textures. The style is Impressionist, some loose and others more detailed. The title of the exhibition plays on the two words; scape and escape. The artist wishes that the viewer feels a sense of relaxation and dreaminess and that they could be part of the scape by escaping into the scene.

Chrissy Dwyer recently completed a Bachelor of Creative Industries (Visual Arts) through James Cook University. Her work has been shown in a number of group exhibitions throughout Far North Queensland since 2005.

eScapism is proudly funded by Cairns Regional Council's Arts and Cultural Grant fund.
