Monique Tippett
Monique creates sculptural and wall based artworks with a thematic emphasis on the natural environment, specifically the jarrah forest of the Darling Range in the southwest corner of Western Australia. Her artworks bridge the gap between sculpture and painting and are made using wood from the native tree species of the area. Her works are abstract and bring the viewer into the contemplative space that is the forest environment. Her use of natural material, colour and texture evoke the phenomena of light and form found in this unique and precious place. Monique is a multi-award winning artist, with a prolific studio practice and several public art commissions throughout Perth and the southwest of WA.
In 2006 she founded, with Alan Lamb, the Dwellingup Arts Lab Residency and Gallery space. She has been on many art residencies most recently at The Banff Centre, Alberta, Canada.
