“Although Tracy paints pictures of people walking into the sea,
you know that this is a slightly dreamlike scenario, but it is also about an
internal state, about loneliness, the possibility of self destruction. But for
me that’s almost too bleak for them, I liken them to perhaps Corbet or Casper
David Fredrick’s “ Figure on the mountaintop” This is the figure poised between
being and not being…. on the edge of consciousness which is a slightly more
positive way of looking at humanity in the great void, the great cosmos.”
Antony Bond Assistant director of AGNSW
Tracy Dods’s paintings merge
acute social observation with poignant symbolic metaphor to illuminate the
heart of the contemporary condition. The results are expressed in colours which
are bold, true and beautiful. Her work
is thoroughly infused with her unequivocal commitment to human freedom. She is an artist for our time.
