About the event
Meet the Artist - Friday 13th September 5 - 7 pm
Alison Mitchell Hannaford is a visual artist based in regional South Australia.
"My work centres on the still life tradition of domestic objects, intentionally arranged and composed in the studio. It is an old tradition, deeply embedded in the practice of carefully observed painting from life. It demands attentiveness to the agency of art making - to the fall of light, the intersection of shadows, of elation and uncertainty and, particularly, to the weft and warp of what is known and what is seen."
Alison graduated from the University of Adelaide with a first class honours in Anthropology and this, along with studies in Asian art and decades of life drawing, informs her practice.
