logic and climate lace: an ode to ada
Description
The idea for this painting happened while sketching a Byron Bay sunset. The artist contemplated Byron’s libertine beauty which led to thoughts of the town's namesake - Lord Byron and his fearless daughter Ada Lovelace. Lovelace was perhaps the most brilliant female in history. However her heroic life sadly descended into addiction and madness. This painting captures that conflicted dichotomy of brilliance and madness. This painting was submitted to the Sulman Prize at the Art Gallery of NSW in 2023.
