Sister Sledge and the pursuit of happiness being family Painting

Pat (1951, Australia) lives and works in The Hague, near by the sea in The Netherlands. Paintings in oil, drawings, collages, modern sculptures and installations, they all are inspired by her dreams at night. Scenes with demons and terrifying creatures, full of bright colors. Repeating themes are vulnerability, power, sexuality and detachment. She intuitively creates her artworks and often combines readymades combined with unusual materials. In 2007 Pat received a fellowship with solo exhibition (2008) at New Art Center/CAN (New York). Two years in a row her work has been selected for the Summer Exhibition in Kunstmuseum (former Gemeentemuseum) Den Haag. Commissioned art: portraits, paintings and sculptures, large murals, curtains and screens. Also creative corporate and family celebrations, outings and children parties.
