eScapsim is a series of acrylic paintings which of “scapes” – landscapes, seascapes, skyscapes, and cityscapes – illustrating the essence of Far North Queensland scenery. The paintings have a contemporary feel, which employ vibrant colours and textures. The style is Impressionist, some loose and others more detailed. The title of the exhibition plays of the two words; scape and escape. The artist seeks the viewer feel a sense of relaxation and dreaminess and that they could be part of the scape by escaping into the scene.
Chrissy Dwyer recently completed a Bachelor of Creative Industries (Visual Arts) through James Cook University. Her work has been in show in a number of group exhibitions throughout Far North Queensland since 2005.
eScapism is proudly funded by Cairns Regional Council's Arts and Cultural Grant fund.
