Urban Landscape: Alpine Painting

Since graduating with a Masters in Fine Art, TBIRD: Tarli Bird has been exhibiting regulary with her work exploring time, pattern and colour. Based in regional Australia Bird works from her art studio and also as an artist in residence around Australia. Bird is an artist inspired by traditional artists and a love for travelling. Like many she is used to being constantly connected to her iPhone and as a result finds herself constantly lost overseas with an inability to read maps correctly. As a result she wanders and captures these wanderings with photos. Conflicting patterns from these photos emerge with an attraction to both the planned urban environment and also the organic and nourishing beauty of a country’s native flora inhabiting this environment. Bird uses this inspiration to create artworks to help stimulate interiors so that they emulate the vibrancy of our surrounding world .
