In The Distance 9
In The Distance 9
by Lisa Cahill.
In The Distance 9, 33 cm x 28 cm, 2018, kiln formed, and enameled glass.
In this series of work Cahill pares down her kiln formed glass to create minimal vignettes evoking notions of an ephemeral landscape.
“Cahill has become known for a series of pictorial works that combine glasswork and painting … The artist's technique has affinities with both painting and sculpture, using images drawn from her memories of the landscape.”
Her painted glass panels “are her most expressive yet, with stark, black-and-white images such as Beside the Escarpment II set against the shadowy vistas of In the Distance II, which recalls the German Romantics.
Cahill's main aim is to evoke that sense of awe one feels in front of the ocean or the mountains. It's much easier to do this on canvas than on a work fired in a kiln.”
John McDonald, Art Critic, Sydney Morning Herald, June 1st, 2018.
