Hung Body
This gestural action on paper was taken from the choreographic preperations for the artist’s performance of Psychosis. It would become a recurring image in this artwork and would echo future mental health trauma. Following a period of healing, tjb returned to the image which xe would reclaim in oil over a decade later.
Verletzlichkeit
The Verletzlichkeit Series captures gestural actions on paper as the artist considers the forms of body and environment where external pressures become evident upon our physical and psychological experience/s of the world. Chalk pen on black paper were used while in residency at the Sidney Nolan Trust in 2017 to create a series of images, two of which are displayed below. These works, part of the Lines in the Landscape residency, would be used in the development of tjb’s CHTHONIC.
Verletzlichkeit No.1 is the only image developed into a 16 x 20” Giclée print. Produced on Hahnemüle Pearl which enhances black and white images with exacting detail. The paper is resin coated with a fibrous feel creating an orange peel-like texture and satin finish. Edition of 4.
