Visual Art – Brisbane

My name is Caitriona Hamilton, I'm 22 from Brisbane, QLD. I currently study visual art at Tafe QLD where I major in painting and printmaking. I'm naturally a pretty reserved character and do appreciate my solace to create art and find inspiration for new ideas but once I'm in my element I feel right at home. My art focuses on the representation of women in natural environments. In particular the symbolic connection of the earth and the female form. I use printmaking, illustration, and painting to explore my Matriarchal genealogy with the aim of conveying my animistic beliefs. My style has a focus on expressive form and figure, almost always including women as the centerpiece surrounded by flora and fauna.
