John Cullinane’s work is drawn from media, books, stories and observed moments. He conjures an atmosphere, mise en scenes that are rich in feeling and narrative. Before his work viewers are compelled to ponder, allowing their mind to wind up, as the artist describes, “in a place that they would have never considered… “Hey, how did I get here?””.
‘Study for Sisters’ pays homage to the universal bond between sisters. Cullinane’s figures are elegant, one turned towards the viewer and the other turned away, sides of the same being. An ajar window in the background suggests possibility, a story starting to unfold.
Represented at the National Gallery of Australia, Art Gallery of Western Australia, Parliament House as well as numerous tertiary and council galleries, Cullinane is a collectable artist. Inventive yet timeless, ‘Study for Sisters’ is for collectors of contemporary figurative art or those seeking a gift for the sister they love.
