- About my artwork
- Lori-Ann Bellissimo’s paintings are the result of a method that pitches colour against depth. Her paintings take shape through a gradual process of using acrylic and mixed media trapped under individual layers of optically clear water-based resin; a final layer of resin seals the surface. This technique explores the paradox of spatial depth on a flat surface as the apparent shifting of colour and form within the painting gauges perspective.
The internal logic of each piece is a buried concentration of the object as revealed through traces of under-painting. Each plane overlaps and interacts with the painting’s physical surface and the form it describes. Abstract elements of design float on the edge of representation but are transformed by a congruous perspective or colour scheme.
Each series plays with formality and tonal relationships reflecting the fact that Bellissimo often works in series returning to the same subject but varying her approach each time. Her titles are distilled from personal experience.
