Cabin Fever
Sydney Morning Herald write up by Chloe Wolifson
"The title Cabin Fever neatly brings together the artist’s interest in mid-century ski lodges and that feeling brought on by extended lockdown. Gosse’s paintings usually focus on architectural exteriors, but by filling the gallery’s entrance with a larger-than-life decal depicting her apartment’s interior, the artist signals the changed circumstances under which these works were painted, and the amplified roles our homes have taken on lately.
While the paintings depict the exterior of these homes their titles suggest an interior view. Phrases such as Undies wet and noses wet shovelling Milo into hot milk, and Shot gun top bunk conjure cosy scenes of warm bodies in these angular rooms nestled in cold landscapes. Yet, their geometric forms are still celebrated through the artist’s minimalist approach, which captures the essence of mid-century modernist architecture."
