Elyss McCleary’s (Naarm/Melbourne) practice explores forms found in layers of spaces, shapes, and colours that shift between representation and abstraction. Working predominantly in oil paint, her compositional placement rhythms are both a reflection and response to environments. She creates portals of imagined spaces mixed with cinematic backgrounds of the everyday that are fused with memory and observation, interrupted by ‘cameo’ appearances of significant urban structures. Elyss has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions since 2007. Her work is held in the Artbank, the Deakin University Art Collection, and significant collections in Australia and Serbia. Elyss holds a Master in Contemporary Art from the Victorian College of the Arts, University of Melbourne (2016). She is represented by the Nicholas Thompson Gallery.
