Lucinda Bresnehan: Water that once ran wild
"Water that Once Ran Wild" depict the rivulets and creeks surrounding my home, and rivulets in wider Hobart. The work was created in my studio which sits beside the creek and parkland in Lenah Valley. From where I paint I can here the water running, birds calling and children laughing and playing in the waters, I can feel and see the importance of this piece of wild in the city. A place where many come to unwind, enjoy the fresh air and take in the sounds of birds and running water. The works are large scale immersive oil paintings. Working in gracile, painting in a scale of black and then then adding colour later to evoke emotion.

"Think J.M.W Turner and his paintings of light, Casper David Frederich's Romantic landscapes or Mark Rothko's soft edge expanses of breathing pigment. Here the landscape captured in Bresnehan's works is Lutruwita/Tasmania, specifically the three rivulets that timelessly flow from Kunanyi/Mt Wellington into Timtumili Minanya/the Derwent River."
