AMANDA MAHONY
Amanda Mahony is an emerging multimedia artist based in Eora/Sydney. Her abstract landscapes create a quiet space for contemplation - an opportunity to reflect on the emotional connection between place, memories and experiences.
Her process-based practice is inspired by her direct experiences in nature. Using acrylics, impasto mediums and oil sticks, Amanda employs sgraffito, sanding, scoring and scraping away layers to reveal underpainting, mirroring erosion and growth in nature. She also builds depth through layers of translucent glazes.
Amanda’s work reflects observations of the bush, sky, water and mountains, focusing on colour and texture to convey the feeling of being in those environments. Amanda's process is iterative, with canvases evolving over time, reflecting the gradual changes found in the natural world.
Amanda is a 2023 BFA graduate of the National Art School. Her studies are complemented by training in traditional and contemporary oil and mixed media techniques at the Milan Art Institute in Arizona USA, as well as a Bachelor of Arts in Media from Macquarie University.
