Michal Glikson has been exploring peripatetic art practice with a focus on painting as a means of negotiating cross-cultural experience and the uncertainty of transitional life since 2006.
"I have long been fascinated with painting as a way of looking at the world, of reaching out to and connecting with others. My work springs from my deep curiosity about journeys, particularly their potential for bringing me into encounters with the world, and placing me in proximity to its pressing issues and concerns."
The Australindopak Archive is a series of scroll paintings that chronicle the artists? immersive journeys in Australia, India and Pakistan between 2012 and 2015. The paintings offer her lived experiences of peripatetic life and a plethora of experiences and encounters with extra/ordinary people.
The exhibition runs through October 7, 2017.
Under the auspices of the Australian Ambassador to Austria, H.E. Dr. Brendon Hammer.
