Artist Bio
Raewyn Carboni, born in 1953 New Zealand, is based in Bowral, NSW, Australia.
Raewyn has showcased her work in various galleries across Sydney, Canberra and the Southern Highlands. Participated in numerous art fairs and prize exhibitions.
Her art is part of several private national and international collections.
Specialising in creating contemporary abstract paintings with medium choice of oil paint, applied on linen or wood panels. Using minimal palette of muted tones with vivid colours, depicting organic shapes that are derived from reality but transformed into expressive forms. These pieces explore the relationship between geometric shapes and colour, and our experience of the body and emotions, aiming to evoke a universal sense of beauty and spirituality.
I am best known for my earlier works of atmospheric landscapes, employing the traditional techniques of the old masters. These pieces featured misty, minimal palettes capturing the subtle interplay of light and atmosphere.
One notable series the “Land, Sea and Sky” collection. Was showcased in Sydney, Australia. Delved into the spiritual dimensions of the landscape, offering viewers a peaceful meditative experience.
