Lyrical abstract paintings full of colour and rhythm and featuring stylised figures, informed by months of life drawing sessions and portraits drawn during lockdown.

The paintings were made on reclaimed industrial vinyl sourced from Reverse Garbage, in line with the artist’s aim to develop a more sustainable art practice. Emerging artist Joanna Durney Sanz studied Fine Art at University of Sydney and achieved a Certificate in Drawing from the National Art School, Sydney. She also holds a Graduate Diploma in Design from the University of Technology, Sydney and has worked as a graphic designer. Joanna has exhibited works in several shows including the Hornsby Art Prize, Willoughby Art Prize and group art society exhibitions. Joanna is a finalist in the 2022 Blue Thumb Art Awards and won the Drawing Prize at the 2022 Hornsby Art Society Members Awards Exhibition.

This is Joanna’s first solo exhibition.

Join us for opening celebrations from 6.00pm Thursday 17 November
