Review by Sumi Skellam “taking pleasure in writing about art and artists” sumiskellam@yahoo.com.au
Kerry Freeman usually begins her painting with a phrase or a sentence. The rest are brushstrokes embodying the story and emotions that follow.
“It’s an internal exploration through paint,” says Freeman,“about all those strange processes that weave throughout daily life.”
These works are predominantly seascapes, occasionally landscapes or dreamscapes, with depictions of people or animals within them. The settings are beautifully textured in deep colours, featuring blues, greens and purples. Occasionally fiery tones are used in contrasting motifs.
Freeman’s paintings are highly symbolic in nature. The overwhelming themes of the paintings are the swirling spaces, representative of human emotional content and their tempests within us. For such communication of feeling, words are never going to be enough. Each painting reflects a journey
Freeman channels her message best through her art. It is here that she most comfortably expresses the things that move her, whether they are events or sentiments. The result is in her paintings which speak to us in line, shade and hue.
