Wonder-Wander Adventures in Art...Artworks by Janet Gallagher

Picture

Janet Gallagher has established a creative practice of a hybrid nature over the past 27 years. Exploring printmaking, collage, sculpture, textiles and installation, 
she has cultivated a rich personal symbolism and idiosyncratic technique.

Her distinctive use of scrap-heap materials – sewn, strung and stitched – thread together psychological topographies and natural morphology.
Her work follows paths and layers of identity, change, connection and disconnection and the physical and psychic environments in which we exist, working with layers, as a means of exploring perception and experience of moment or place.

In mapping the micro and macro alike, she searches for signs and cycles of renewal and beauty, often reclaiming everyday materials in an intertwining the mundane and spiritual. Janet’s allegorical vignettes offer intriguing layers and dimensions to contemplate.

​Janet is based in Adelaide (via Qld, Vic, NT & the Adelaide Hills). She is interested in opportunities for exhibition, collaboration & bringing her art into variety of settings to explore potential via a variety of mediums or workshops.     
In 2017-19 she facilitated workshops in the community exploring Altered Book Art Journaling along with workshops for children exploring printmaking with natural, found & recycled materials. She has current Department of Communities & Social Inclusion (DCSI) child-related employment clearances & current National Police Checks.
