Artists Statement.
This year I want to
concentrate on ‘pulling
together’ all the work that I
churned out last year. I’m
inspired very much by the

have here in Australia. Small
blurs of visions and ideas put
together in a collage to form
a story.
For example: - the
texture of dried mud
- rain
droplet’s on a greasy
windscreen
- ice
crystals on tree branches.
Nature is such a beautiful
thing and the challenge that I
am confronted with as an
artist is to reproduce this
beauty and exotic’s and to

Gatherings… a personal collection of found objects.
Artist…………ildiko FASKA
Preview……Tuesday, 4th September,7.30pm, 2001
Emerging artist ildiko Faska’s first foray into the public arena shows us her overwhelming love for all things natural and a talent for organizing these bits and pieces into works of art.
Her solo exhibition of Paintings (mixed media) and Printmaking exhibition., shows how collectable materials which have been found in all of the places that she likes to visit, walk through and to stay at, such as Beaches, forests and parks.
“That I have a plentiful supply of Natures discarded gifts is a joy to my heart! They are free, beautiful, unusual and in abundance. I want people to feel the same calm and respect for the beauty of the found objects that I feel every time I am touching and attaching a piece of debris/treasure to the canvas, and to appreciate the beauty of offbeat objects
My printmaking has been inspired by the beauty of the Australian landscape.
We are so lucky here in Australia to have everything that we want at our fingertips.”
