About The Artwork

This series are Diasec Prints- the image is printed on museum quality semi- gloss paper then sandwiched between 3mm Dilite acrylic and 3mm UV 100 Plexiglass. They have a semi-gloss finish and come with polished edges and a 2.5cm aluminium hanging mount on the rear. This method ensures accurate colour reproduction, light hanging weight in a durable format that protects against damage caused by mould or movement. The semi gloss finish reduces reflection.The piece can be hung as is without a 'frame' look or housed within a traditional frame. Please allow 2 weeks for printing. These pictures are a comment upon the fragility of the environment today. The inspiration is classical 15thC paintings such as Sandro Botticelli’s ‘The Birth of Venus’. The figure represents the environment personified- she is beautiful and elegant. She is also diverse and complex as seen in the variety of flowers around her. She holds a clock which symbolises time running out. The reference to the classical era reminds us that we have already had a lot of time to consider our impact on the environment. Finally, the figure is ‘gagged’ by a piece of tape on the surface of the image. This device brings the viewer out of the historical context and into the present day, while alluding to the fact that ‘she’ cannot speak for herself. All images within in these compositions were shot by the artist in different environments. Each flower has been individually manipulated and placed in each composition. The images are then digitally ‘painted’ with a range of brushes and masks to create perspective and lighting effects. When complete, these images are comprised of up to 400 individual layers.

Born in Australia, Naida Adell Ginnane first studied Visual Arts in 1985, completing a B.Ed (Art) followed by a M. Ed in 2004. Since then Naida has worked in the Visual Arts for more than 30 years, specialising in a range of techniques including 35mm SLR photography and dark room process, painting and drawing. More recently she has focused on digital imagery and film-making. Her students have won state Art/ Design awards and graduated to become successful artists in their own right. Now living in Singapore, Naida works as an emerging artist in her own company, teaching photography workshops and creating Fine Art. Artistic Statement I believe the role of the artist is not to make pretty things, but to challenge the viewer to question what they see and think. I do this by making images that are discernable visually and symbolically, providing the interpretation of deeper meaning. Using the flower as a motif to represent the environment, my work focuses on drawing attention to the environmental issues facing this generation and hopefully maintaining social discourse. My intention for the viewer is to delight and challenge. I draw them in with colour and contrast then surprise them with unexpected details. I use the juxtaposition of the beauty of the natural world with the ugliness of man’s impact, to reach the viewer in an emotional way, to experience despair with hope, and hopefully elicit a response. In some pieces, I use a camera to shoot the flower images, then use digital brushes, multiple layers and masks to ‘destroy’ parts of the flower. Other pieces combine up to 700 digital layers to create imaginary scenes. Current work combines digital images with mixed media such as ink and acrylic paint.
