Belinda Nadwie creates abstracted landscapes that traverse emotional, psychological and spiritual experience.
Working with oil paint, charcoal, spray paint and oil crayons, she captures a spectrum of moods – from quiet, melancholy moments of indigo and teal to swathes of Persian pink and saffron. The viewer can choose where they sit in this vast spectrum of emotion; whether they gravitate towards the darkness or the light.
The artist paints intuitively without preconception, each work reading like a painterly stream of consciousness, a reflection upon her inner world and the evocative tones of the Australian landscape. Her paintings capture a fleeting moment in time, portraying the mood and the inspiration of that particular moment of inspiration. The artworks come together spontaneously in a colourful union of light, colour and texture.
“Colour and balance are my passion,” says Nadwie. “My expressions are all feeling–based.”
Although the works are predominantly non-representational, there are moments in which physical landscapes manifest across the canvas.
Capturing the delicate, feathery textures of Australia’s iconic wild Mulla Mulla, this oil painting blends rich brushwork with a joyful, luminous colour palette. Lush layers of blush pinks, warm ochres, and golden hues sweep upward against a refreshing aqua-cyan backdrop, evoking a sunlit field in full bloom. The tactile quality of the oil paint brings dynamic depth, movement, and life to the canvas, celebrating the resilient beauty and quiet elegance of native flora
