'Who We Become' is a vibrant 61 x 61cm painting that captures the beauty of nature through a luscious display of stylised flowers and leaves on a textured background.
Tasmanian artist Amy Compton creates a harmony of colour, weaving together rich greens and magenta with subtle touches of yellow and brown.
'Who We Become' explores the paradoxical relationship between beauty and adversity in human experience. Like the layers of paint that comprise this piece, our lives are built upon accumulated experiences - some luminous, others difficult or painful - that ultimately converge to create the complexity of who we become.
