Pure land
September 1 to September 21, 2018
Linton and Kay Galleries, Subiaco WA
Beausein’s interest in phenomena such as synchronicity, intuition and the experience of beauty and their connection with some sort of unknown intelligence in nature is explored in ‘Pure land’. Her enquiry into these concepts has led her to Buddhist and Japanese Shinto philosophies.

“Traditional art practice in Japan uses art as an expression of devotion; in this manner these works convey my reverence for Nature as an expression of the Numinous”

From the many traditional Japanese techniques involving paper that Beausein learnt directly from masters of their fields in Japan she has developed her own techniques for use in a contemporary way.
