We are thrilled to submit our project, "Beyond Lines," for consideration in the GDA Young Vision Award 2023. This innovative endeavour brings together the exquisite artistry of watercolour painting, life drawing, abstract expressionism, landscape studies, and the fusion of Eastern and Western artistic traditions, culminating in silk embroidery.
"Beyond Lines" is a creative journey that transcends boundaries, uniting diverse artistic skills and forms into a harmonious whole. At its core, the project celebrates the versatile medium of watercolour, allowing artists to explore the abstract, delve into landscapes, and engage in tonal exercises to evoke a multitude of emotions through colour.
Life drawing, a fundamental artistic discipline, enhances the project's depth by capturing the human form in all its grace and vulnerability. The integration of these techniques into the world of silk embroidery from the Orient adds a unique dimension, bridging cultures and traditions.
