Episode 260 - Inga Dalrymple: Paint, Perception and the Fleeting Moments Held Within Abstraction.
<p><br></p><p><a href="https://www.ingadalrymple.com/about" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Inga Dalrymple</a> is a visual artist whose practice explores painting and drawing as a dialogue between material, gesture and perception. Working between abstraction and observation, she is interested in how paint can hold traces of movement, memory and experience.</p><br><p>Inspired by nature and the feelings it can evoke, Inga works through processes of layering, erasing and reworking. These actions become a record of time and thought, revealing decisions and changes made during the making of a work.</p><br><p>Gesture sits at the centre of her practice. For Inga, each mark carries memory, emotion and a sense of place, while also acting as a way of thinking through painting. Forms appear and disappear, allowing the surface to guide the work as it develops.</p><br><p>In this episode of Art Wank, Inga talks about painting as a process of thinking, the role of gesture and memory, and how abstraction can give form to experiences that are difficult to define.</p><br><p>Inga is represented by <a href="https://otomys.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Otomys.</a> </p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Episode 259 - Chris Horder: The Dynamic Force of Paint
<p><br></p><p>Australian artist <a href="https://nandahobbs.com/artists/christopher-horder/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Chris Horder </a>joins Art Wank to discuss a painting practice shaped by intuition, chance and decades of experimentation.</p><br><p>Known for his atmospheric stain paintings, Horder draws on influences ranging from Eastern ink traditions to Abstract Expressionism, creating works that embrace unpredictability and the unexpected. In this episode, he reflects on leaving school early to pursue art, the influence of travel and literature on his thinking, and the ongoing search for meaning through painting.</p><br><p>Chris shares insights into his studio process, the balance between control and accident, and the importance of remaining open to discovery. The conversation ranges from art history and bohemian life to the realities of sustaining a creative career.</p><br><p>Horder is a finalist of multiple major art prizes and scholarships including the Brett Whiteley Travelling Art Scholarship and Dobell Prize. His paintings are in major public and private collection in Australia and around the world.</p><br><p>Chris is represented by <a href="https://nandahobbs.com/artists/christopher-horder/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Nanda Hobbs</a> in Sydney. </p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Episode 258 - Rosemary Lee on drawing, detail, and the Dobell Prize
<p>Australian artist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cooldog94/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rosemary Lee</a> joins Art Wank to discuss the quiet power of observation, the language of drawing, and finding beauty in the everyday.</p><br><p>Awarded the 2025 Dobell Drawing Prize $30,000 acquisitive prize for her work 24–1 (2024), Lee’s meticulously rendered pencil drawing explores the changing urban landscape of Sydney’s Inner West, capturing construction sites, demolition zones and the constant cycle of renewal that shapes contemporary life. Selected from 965 entries, the work impressed judges with its extraordinary detail, visual intensity and nuanced reflection on place and transience.</p><br><p>In this episode, Rosemary talks about her artistic journey, the meditative process of drawing, and why subjects that many people overlook have become a source of endless fascination. From the complexities of gentrification and urban change to the challenges and rewards of maintaining a sustained studio practice, she shares the thinking behind the work that earned one of Australia’s most significant drawing awards.</p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
