Artist Statement
Angela Meyer lives in North Queensland, Australia. She exhibits locally and sells internationally. Her work is in many public and private collections The message in the paintings respond to the luscious environment and her personal quest for expression.
"I grew up in the rainforest. The interplay of colour and light in the house of my childhood remains vivid to me, where the family table was always laden with fruit and flowers.
Outside, tropical gardens, and the nearby reef inspired a vision which responds to an exotic world. My paintings are about sensation, including taste, smell and the imagined poetry of gentle sounds. By making pictures I externalise my private world of experience and open the silent voice that lies within art. This can be like saying a prayer."
