Wendy Stokes

About

Wendy Stokes has consistently worked across painting, drawing and printmaking disciplines for the last 3 decades primarily focusing on medium to large scale painting and work on paper. As an artist who has lived within a regional framework most of her life Wendy’s art practice is informed by her environment and her daily interaction within it; the ephemeral coastline of NSW.
​
Wendy lives adjacent to the ocean, the edge of land, and draws from her deep connection to this landscape. Her work poses questions as to what defines landscape and one’s relationship with it. These works become notations, residues, lived through the experience of ritual practice in a familiar environment; of her bi daily walk along its edge. Such an association in a familiar environment, the artist aligns to the late Claude Monet and his ritual walks within his garden and the coastline of his youth. The works purposefully wrestle with ambiguous ground; drawing from the Romantic lineage of landscape representation and late Modernist Abstraction, particularly lyrical Abstract Expressionism and the French Surrealists, where the act and mark hold a resonance.
