LESTER, Kerriehttp://www.australiangalleries.com.au
Visiting Artist. Kerrie Lester, perhaps best known for her portraits selected for exhibition in the Archibald Prize, is a dedicated and energetic artist, with works held in numerous public galleries, corporate and government collections including the National Gallery of Australia, the National Portrait Gallery, BHP Australia and the Children’s Hospital, Westmead.Lester’s distinctive, laboriously hand-stitched canvases have become her trademark. The instantly recognizable works are thick with oil paint and rich with colour. Her subject matter celebrates vibrant and whimsical reflections of moments in time. Capturing fleeting gestures and fragments of daily life, Lester places these moments in the viewer’s memory through her paintings. In depicting a scene or gesture from a fragment of daily life, Lester’s painting captures these otherwise fleeting moments in our memories.
The themes explored in Lester’s oeuvre have been based on the artist’s love of the Sydney foreshore and its occupants’ outdoor way of life. Children, animals and lovers share moments of play, reflection and fantasy .
