Emily Ebbs was the recipient of the 2022 Tweed Regional Gallery — National Art School Masters of Fine Art (Painting) Residency Award. She completed a residency in the Gallery’s on-site studio – the Nancy Fairfax Artist in Residence Studio and this solo exhibition, titled Slow, Motions is the outcome of that residency. The Partnership between the Gallery and NAS aims to showcase emerging artists in celebration of Margaret Olley’s legacy as a NAS alumna and a supporter of emerging artists.

Slow, Motions is evocative of mindfulness, reflection and contemplation. Her monochromatic works are created by applying delicate washes of acrylic paint and scented oils to muslin and linen. Allowing each layer to dry, she returns the next day to add another wash, building up the colour slowly and thoughtfully, one layer at a time. The end result emanates a meditative feeling, inviting the viewer to look inwards.

Ebbs graduated with a Masters of Fine Art (Painting) from the National Art School in 2022. She was a finalist in the 2023 Mosman Art Prize and won the 2022 Prix Yves Hernot painting award.
