Jo Fernandez - Time to Reflect
Online Exhibition Dates: July 21st - August 4th
Online Sales Launch: Sunday July 21st 7pm
Time to Reflect is the latest series of paintings by Jo Fernandez. The works feature water as a prompt for personal reflection. The central subject is the reflection of land and sky, and although inspired by specific locations, it could be anywhere, as the artist works from intuition as well as observation.
Jo's works are representational of elements within the landscape she responds to emotionally; editing and isolating what she considers to be the core significance. Be it the transient quality of light and atmosphere, the drama of colour and tone in cloud formations, her works convey a sense of calm and nostalgia. The artist invites the viewer to pause, reflect and restore a sense of place in nature.
Jo lives on the outskirts of the historic village of Millthorpe, in the NSW Central Tablelands and has been exhibiting with The Corner Store Gallery since 2019, after being selected as a finalist in the Landscape Group Exhibition. She has been a finalist in the Mini Series, Inside this Box, and Regional Landscape Prize exhibitions, and held her inaugural solo show Mostly Cloudy in 2022.
