Usually in close, sometimes out wide, but always graphic, textured and rich in color is the photographic work of Aussie artist Jules Ober. From the ancient icy landscape of Tasmania to riotous colors of the North Queensland jungle, Jules introduce her new way of looking at the Australian landscape.
My digitally produced art shares the principles of Japanese Ikebana.
ikebana is a disciplined art form in which nature and humanity are brought together. It is a time to appreciate things in nature that people often overlook because of their busy lives. One becomes more patient and tolerant of differences, not only in nature, but also in general. Ikebana can inspire one to identify with beauty in all art forms. This is also the time when one feels closeness to nature which provides relaxation for the mind, body, and soul.
Jules continues to explore all the possibilities of the new digital printmaking technologies as she develops working partnerships with local and international designers and architects to integrate photography as a design element in the creation of contemporary interiors.
