Time Pour is the solo exhibition of amazing Sydney based artist illustrator, Elizabeth Nagy. After graduating from the Sydney College of the Arts in 2009, Lizzie placed her art practice on hold in the pursuit of becoming a midwife. However, after producing works for donations to Non Government Organisations such as FRANS, Amnesty International and FBi radio, she is now getting right back into creating and we are super excited to be presenting her current work to you!
The exhibition will showcase Lizzie's recent adaptation of coloured pencil and marker into her previous style which was predominately liner based illustration. Her highly time consuming drawings and collages are illuminated with fine detail and affectionate mark making and for this exhibition are centred around themes of time and the pressures of creating as a young illustrator. Inspired by childrens illustration, folk art and craft and collage, Lizzies work is a thought provoking fusion of figurative and fantastical landscapes, typography, anatomy and mythological creatures.
Listing influences such as Shaun Tan, Tohby Riddle, Adrian Tomine and Cristy Road, Time Pour shall be an illustration extravaganza not to be missed!
OPENING NIGHT: Friday 4th February @ 7pm
Exhibition runs until 12th February
