Tanya Crothers at Mosman Gallery

through-the-door

Tanya Crothers’ background as an architect has encouraged her to look for views beyond edges and frames, beyond doors and windows. For this work, originating in India and Sri Lanka, she concentrated on connections and street views outside and inside hotel rooms. Combining printmaking with hand colour she manipulated perspective to create variations on original sketches.

This new body of work draws together processes and ideas from his cross-disciplinary art practice to reveal a considered search for ‘authenticity’ in Rak’s work. While seemingly minimalist, the work has gravitas, made possible through a deep conceptual engagement with technique and the refinement and articulation of his core creative interests.

Through the artwork, Ben Rak plays with the notion of a hierarchy and chronology of painting over printmaking; in this case, which comes first, the painting or the print? He also plays with the idea that the artist’s ‘mark-making’ is intellectually based instead of incidental or accidental. Rak directly challenges the audience to consider the intention of the artist and to examine what is contained and conveyed through the work.
