Artist Statement:
AERIAL LANDSCAPE
A different beauty from the air, more poignant and more objective in its apparent immobility. Patterns become abstract, whether formal or natural.
Details and elements of reality- mostly trees and shadows- become re-ordered, moved around like tesserae in a mosaic. Fascinating long shadows of the late afternoon...

Reviews for Yoli Salmona:
|
|
|
'Yoli is a serious artist, with a soft but distinctive touch...'
John McDonald, Art writer, Sydney 2003
"...I had the opportunity to go to an art opening at the Shapiro Gallery in Queen Street, Paddington. It was a joint exhibition by husband and wife Yoli Salmona and Alexander Sharp. It was called Nature Calls and was a fantastic exhibition of both photographic and art work around nature's themes." excerpt of Senator Ian Cohen argumentation on Threatened Species Legislation, at NSW Parliament House, 27.10.04
'Yoli Salmona harponne l'invisible qui se love au sein du visible. Elle montre l'attente, le secret, en se maintenant sur la ligne de crête d'un réalisme qui, finalement, perce la lumière'
Pr Daniel Leuwers, Cultural Attaché at The French Embassy in Australia 1991
'In judging the Print Section I was looking for works that combined the distinctive quality of the chosen print technique, with the artist's personal view of life, as well as an aesthetic arrangement of formal design. The winning work 'Hotel Bondi' by Yoli Salmona is a highly accomplished use of the silkscreen medium, and strikingly dramatic in its crisp economical arrangement of form and colour. However, its outstanding feature is the irony of concept - the presentation of an historical respectable façade with masks the true nature of the environment and contempory life style...'
