Linda Kruger
Linda Kruger is an Australian artist with a professional background in film-making and creating multi-media installations for museum exhibitions. She now works as a full time artist. This collection of vessel paintings explores texture and colour through simple modern shapes. She joined the Corner Store Gallery’s stable of artists early in 2021.
Linda pays loving tribute to the seemingly ordinary objects in her home. To her, the most important forms are those that serve us daily and are usually overlooked: the colours and patterns of the messy tabletop, the exotic creaminess of a glass of milk, abundant fresh fruit from local growers, and foraged flowers in a gifted vase. These are the goddess forms – the tones and colours of domestic happiness that transcend the humdrum of everyday life. It is the reverence given to these everyday objects that raises them from the profane to the sacred.
