Summary
Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Art Wank Podcast we chat with Sydney-based artist Gina Bruce , known for her haunting, dreamlike paintings that play between strength and subtlety. Gina works across a variety of media, often returning to the same places to capture their changing moods and connections to identity. Her works are bold in mark-making yet beautifully delicate in atmosphere, creating that unique balance she’s become recognised for. We talk about her journey into art, including how she came to study at the National Art School and what drew her into painting in the first place. Gina shares insights into her process – starting with sketches and drawings – before approaching the canvas with quick, decisive marks that bring her ideas to life. The conversation also touches on her trip to Broken Hill . Gina talks about returning to favourite spots time and again, how place and memory become entwined, and why those themes continue to fascinate her. She has been selected for the Sulman Prize, the Portia Geach Memorial Award (twice Highly Commended), and the NSW Parliament Plein Air Painting Prize, to winning the Waverley Art Prize with her diptych Dreamhouse 2 . Gina is represented by Liverpool St Gallery in Sydney. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
