Waterfall, Rockfall, Rubble
Dubrau’s practice moves across mediums. Themes of interconnection play out in landscapes and abstract scenes. Simple forms and motifs repeat and shadow each other in multiples or as dance sequences. Watercolour paintings, paper installations, folded origami paper forms and photographs. The painted lines that define the work are a consistent part of the artist’s evolving visual language and have at times represented the mineral aspect of which our world is made up, with the landscape that we ingest as food, being the make-up of our bodies. Often whimsical or fantastical, the scatterings of landscape appear like water, food or abstract thought; drifting and meandering like parts of a story, not entirely conscious of direction nor origin, but bumping up to and aspecting one another in an endless rumble tumble of possibility and opportunity.
