I gave you a standing ovation from my studio 👏👏👏👏👏 as an artist who studied in the early eighties , I had , natch , the Gombrich as one of my textbooks. Needless to say , I was underwhelmed…I was told by more than one male lecturer, that it was such a pity I was so talented, but would soon be getting married and having children and would give up my art practice. It was almost as if they were saying it was a waste to have my place not given to a more deserving male. I was also explicitly for various forms of sex from various lecturers ( male obvs ) , and when I refused one of them , he told me he would fail me . He did . Anyway, in spite of them and because of the great Penny Siopis - who should be in your next book - I graduated top of my class and even though I did get married and have children, I never gave up . I have never worked harder and been more productive than I am at the moment , and am about to have my eighth solo exhibition. I can’t wait to get your book - and I can’t wait to see what else your amazing and beautiful brain will bring us in the future. WELL DONE YOU 👏👏👏👏👏👏💐🎈
Brilliant interview. Your enthusiasm and knowledge keep us engaged. Impactful observations without becoming so highbrow that we have no idea what the hell you’re talking about. Thank you for your time, effort and dedication to share these exceptional artists with us!
Glad to see your rippling enthusiasm n intelligence resonate! I was cooking fir half of it and pondered the male v female gaze.. i hope like painting someones portrait its a felt sense when apprehending another being. I have found this true.
That black mountain college ive heard of and provided upbeat classless learning n sharing. We have to help champion each other!
Wow the life or theatre expo by a Jewish woman artist slayed. I can envisage those watercolours as tears. Really sad.
Keep on giving the priceless details ( like Gillespies rope n nails in the confession of innocence box) to the stories…!
