Finalist - Perth Royal Art Prize for Landscape 2024

Acclaimed artist Lori Pensini has been selected as a Finalist in the Perth Royal Art Prize for Landscape 2024 with her outstanding painting titled Clay Pan 80 x 75 cm. Oil on linen.
This exhibition will be showcased at the Wilkinson Gallery Claremont Showgrounds 13 - 21 July.

Artist Statement:
This figurative landscape is painted in response to enduring the driest spell on record in the South West of WA. Everything struggled, landscape, animals and people. Our dams dried up and the natural springs, a vital life source for decades seared in the heat to become baked pans of hardened clay. My torso image in this piece represents seasons past, the times of plenty and is set against the backdrop of this years drought stricken landscape.
