About the Artist
Brigita La is a Lithuanian-born Australian artist, based in Melbourne since 1998. She completed a Master of Fine Art at the Vilnius Art Academy, Lithuania. Brigita studied at International Summer Academy in Salzburg with Professor Tone Fink (Austria) in 2013 and received a scholarship to study the following year with French art duo Professor Annie & Patrick Poirier. She is a finalist at Mosman, Fisher’s Ghost, Blacktown and Hutchins Art Awards and received Art residencies in Finland, Lithuania and Tasmania. She has held 9 solo exhibitions as well as taken part in many group exhibitions, both in Australia and overseas.
She has always been fascinated by the landscape, and organic forms and textures. Her paintings are not intended to replicate a scene, but rather evoke a feeling and a sense of place. Brigita’s paintings are visceral and relate to inward feeling rather than to intellect. Her painting process is spontaneous and raw, and her visual language features abstract textural shapes, gestural calligraphic marks and unique colour combinations.
Brigita’s fascination with the underwater world and snorkelling is clearly evident in her art practice. Her unexpected seascapes appear in ever changing new ways, but organic textural marks that remind of a hand-woven tapestry remain distinct to her artistic style.
