Artist: Liana Papalexis
Title: Alice is Porcelain Land

Dimensions: 

Statement: "It's a brain getaway. the beauty is misty translucency of porcelain is reflected through light, though the sky and the blue sea, as they mix together with the pear-shaped forms which follow one another under the gaze."

72. Camie Lyons

Title: Impromptu Making and Shadow

Dimensions: 350 x 250 x 190cm

Statement: "I picked up discarded wire and coaxed it into form. I found beauty in the tangled language. These works are those experiments blown up. The challenge was to remain true to the original continuous line work and resist temptation to redirect."

Title: Contemplation (2010)

Title: Poseidon

Dimensions: 197 x 74 x 50 cm
