BIO: Amy Hersch is a Sydney based artist whose passion for art is inspired by her many travels, and experience with diverse cultures.
Born in South Africa, Amy spent most of her childhood in Israel before immigrating to Australia. She has called Sydney home for the past 16 years. Amy’s eyes were widened to the world at a young age, sparking her passion and curiosity for different people and cultures across the world.
In early 2012, Amy was invited to work with leading artist Mirta Kupferminc in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
This was an extremely rewarding opportunity and helped Amy to explore her passion for painting, as well as other mediums. For the past year, Amy lived in Manhattan. During this time she worked at Jim Kempner Fine Art gallery in Chelsea, NYC.
“I saw a new side to Art. The contradiction and contrast between business and Art. One cannot live without the other yet by nature they are opposite concepts.”
Rather than simply capturing the depth and meaning of the places Amy visits, she strives to explore the beauty and love that a voyeur experiences, as though looking through the lens of a camera.
“My Artworks are snapshots of moments I had during my journeys. The strong contrast and monochromatic scheme in my works accentuates the somber narrative within the piece.”
The many places she has travelled, India, Cuba and Africa have been the central source of her inspiration. Although these places are so vastly different, the passion for love, family and life are all connecting themes. LESS...
