Kane Cunningham
Member since 2016
I am essentially a landscape painter that explores through the dialectical process the historical, cultural and contemporary narratives that exist within a contested location, environment and space.
The aim is to synthesise a personal understanding of the landscape and to offer the viewer a personal perspective on issues that affect the vested interests of landowners, the National Parks, Industry and tourism.
Inspired by J.M.W Turner, Picasso and contemporary artists such as Per Kirkeby from Denmark my work also engages with the materiality and physicality of painting in the landscape and in the studio. My medium is varied, to include watercolour, oil paint, print and pastel.
