Large and layered, paint and texture build one on top of the other, while shifting light blends colours and shapes, at once recognisable, yet veiled. This work reveals some of my hidden experience and heighted connection with the sensory world. The light dances across the work while colour and texture help to create illusions of depth and dimension through layering, blending and distorting shape. Exploring human perception is linked to my own journey with a rare neurological disorder that changed my perceptions forever. Close up the layers and strokes in this work might appear chaotic, but from a distance they work together to reveal outlines of almost recognisable shapes and places, what was before and what is now. Challenging what is known and reframing it into the new, changing the way we see.

TARA JOHNS’ work has been exhibited as part of the Sydney Fringe Festival and in several galleries across Sydney and Melbourne and she was a finalist in the Art and About Australian Life exhibition. After studying photography at Sydney Technical College and working as a photojournalist in Sydney and Ho Chi Min City, Tara completed a degree in Visual Art through Curtin University, and later a Graduate Diploma of Visual Art Education at ACU. Tara’s transition from a commercial photographer to art photographer and painter and her experience living and working in Sydney’s diverse and industrial inner west, is reflected in her work, which boldly projects the natural into the urban, man-made world. In 2016 Tara was suddenly diagnosed with a rare disorder of the nerves in the brain that causes a debilitating and chronic pain. She underwent two rounds of brain surgery, which has helped her regain her life, but changed her perceptions forever. With a heightened perception of the sensory, drawn from this, Johns’ large format abstract works show bleeding and distorted shape, shards of colour sparking off earth tones, blurred lines, and patterns. Large and layered, paint and texture builds one on top of the other, while shifting light blends colours and shapes, at once recognisable, yet veiled. “Close up the layers and strokes in my work might appear chaotic, but from a distance they work together to reveal outlines of almost recognisable shapes and places. What was before and what is now”. The Sydney artist and photographer’s works focus on light, colour and texture, creating illusions of depth and dimension, layering, blending and distorting shape. Challenging what is known and reframing into the new. Inspired by James Turrell’s interest in human perception and the work of Fred Williams, who changed ways of seeing landscape and environment, Johns’ art captures her rare and hidden experience and heighted connection with the sensory world through paint and texture. Ultimately, it challenges us all to rethink the way we see.
