KUDOS COMMUNITY OF CARE – Commissioned Artwork

Artist Profile

“I have been very interested in art at an early age in high school and as an artist, I started dot painting 20 years ago. I am very fascinated in sharing my Aboriginal Culture through my dot paintings telling stories. Without the ability to actualise an idea or concept, art would not exist. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the ideas that I have about myself and the world that we live in. I try not to limit myself to one medium, style or concept.

My inspiration and ideas change, and my knowledge also changes. Each piece I create is simultaneously an extension from our past and where I have come from and what has been passed onto me and learnt from others. Many of my dot painting methods can be seen in my one-of-a-kind work. I see myself as a future artist and some may think this looking at my artwork. I want to be able to tell a story in all my pieces that I do. And if a viewer stops and looks just for a moment to view and reflect on any pieces that I have created then I have succeeded in my work.” (Pauline Wilton, 2023).
