Stephen Brasch
Stephen Brasch's next solo show will be held in the gallery in July/August 2012
Award winning Queensland painter Stephen Brasch has been painting and exhibiting for twenty years. He has a deep engagement with the landscape, particularly the area surrounding Kallangur where he has lived and worked most of his life. His paintings reflect this.
The landscape on the northern fringe of the Brisbane suburbs is a conglomerate of industrial sheds, semi-rural properties, rough scrub and never ending excavations for road upgrades and extensions. From this ramshackle inspiration, Stephen produces paintings with great affection and sympathy for this tumbledown landscape.
Since graduating from Queensland University of Technology in 1991 Stephen has exhibited in many group and solo exhibitions. His work has won several awards including the Pine Rivers Regional Gallery Prize for painting on three separate occasions and in 1993 Stephen was a finalist in the prestigious Moet and Chandon prize which toured Australia.
