A World of One's Own: Pansies, Moons and Chameleon Words with Laura Skerlj

Is a painting like a poem? How do we make our own rules when we are painting? In this conversation Tai Snaith and Laura Skerlj discuss their migrant roots in Australia and how this affects the ethics of how they live and work. Laura shares her secret practice of writing ‘tragic poems’ and how these are slowly creeping into her paintings. They share their love of double meanings and layering of possibilities in our palettes alongside other women painters they admire.
