Louise Giovanelli navigates different modes of ‘picturing’ and approaches to painting encouraging the viewer to switch between modes of looking. Rich fluid hues recede into the canvas contrasted by soft, luminous volumes that define the structure of a supple fold. As the eye passes over her paintings, sharp lines, ‘glitches’,or smudges are apparent in some works, causing interruptions in the coherence of the whole. These small interventions and visual non sequiturs are a recurring motif and a method of experimenting with the boundary between modes of aesthetic refinement and distortion.
