Tracey Moffat

The image I selected of Tracey Moffat’s artwork is from her First Jobs exhibition in 2008. Its titled Selling Aluminium Siding 1978 and is meant to depict the horrendous jobs they Moffat and many of her friends had to do in order to survive as they were growing up and doing their separate university degrees. Moffat reminisces about the jobs and how she loathed the “rich kids” who had everything handed to them however she would not replace the experiences because she strongly believes it lead her to be who she is today and she loves that. The bright colours in the artwork don’t quite match a real scene but are there, as a sign of the positive side in what at the time seemed horrible to her. The artwork is done on rice paper using archival pigments and a gel medium. Its 71 by 91.5 cm and is designed to be displayed landscape on a wall

 

Rosalie Gascoigne

The image I choose from Rosalie Gascoigne artwork was named All That Jazz and it was originally produced in 1989. It is a compilation of split wooden soft drink cases. These particular materials were chosen because of Gascoigne’s fascination with junk and anything that has been exposed to the weather. These particular crates suit this perfectly because they are completely out of use, pointless in many ways so they suit both her criteria for good materials. It relatively large for a wall mounted piece at 131 × 100cm
