"Indigenous Australian and
Maori motifs can be found in these latest works – traces of the artist’s
ongoing interests – and they are surrounded by the opaque areas of paint
that Kovacs builds up and then takes back in a series of layers that hold
evidence of the paintings evolution."

Kate Just "Family"
Ultimately," Family" is
a surreal knitted portrait of Just's own family, whose heads and hands
appear at the ends of leaf-less branches. The knitting operates as both
a literal and metaphorical weaving together of the forms, and emphasises
domestic connections to clothes like socks, blankets or jumpers.
