West Australian artist Kiandra Buchanan’s focus is still life and figurative works. The work is representational, leaning into realism, though texture and expressive brushwork are at the forefront. The artworks are mostly completed in the Alla Prima or wet on wet method, allowing greater manipulation of the paint layers and textures. Buchanan’s subjects are chosen to build a story around a thought or feeling. They are a glimpse into ones inner world, and state of mind, soft and intimate they look at the beauty and banality of the everyday.

This is her first solo show with Weswal, it will be held in the Stockroom Gallery
