Featured Painter: Miranda Skoczek

Miranda Skoczek is an Australian artist living and working in Melbourne, Victoria. Miranda's practice is a constant search for beauty, and an historical and symbolic palimpsest of the history of image making, and the history of her own making. Embroidery, folk art, Chinese and Japanese prints, Mughal miniatures, Islamic architecture, and popular culture are some of the cultural references which permeate throughout her portfolio. The works are designed to effect the viewer, to transport them to a sometimes whimsical mythological space, an atmosphere saturated in colour and emotive forms.
