Still Waters

Suzanna Lang

This new series of oil paintings is the artists’s most eloquent yet. There is a real sense of discovery in the making of these images. Having now refined what she describes as the balancing act of reconciling spontaneity and a passion for the vigorous working of the surface with the quiet stillness of the still life genre, Lang moves into new territory.

Still Waters draws on the artist’s personal experience of a childhood spent in and around Lavender Bay and the equally influential experience of her contact with the area’s principal art forebear, Brett Whiteley. The idea of the past as a wellspring of inspiration for the present unfolds in these images with a freshness and liveliness that comes from Suzanna’s intrinsic love of colour, paint and feeling.
