T3D IS AN ARTISTIC PARTNERSHIP WHO COLLABORATE WITH ARTISTS, ARCHITECTS, FABRICATORS, BUILDING USERS AND GOVERNMENT BODIES, TO CREATE SITE SPECIFIC ARTWORKS
Amanda Kay - Artist - Director
Amanda works as a multidisciplinary artist, using modern and traditional techniques, recently awarded a Regional Arts Fund Grant to further her fine art practice with artist mentor Sue Lovegrove and assist in the co-curation of her exhibition 'Release' held at Moonah Arts Centre. Throughout her work, Amanda explores abstract representation and conceptual thinking to convey simple yet deep connections with herself and the world around her. Amanda asks the viewer to contemplate through feeling with the use of colour, construction and composition.
Working primarily on commissions to create site specific artworks for public space with life partner, Jerome Dobinson. Spatial relationships within their work create experiences between people and place. They apply colour and design principles to space, endeavoring to establish synergy within our physical surrounds. Responding to the needs of the stakeholders, the local environment and new technologies, Amanda is inspired to create a more colourful environment for people to work, live and play.
Jerome Dobinson - Artist - Director
Jerome specialises in public art installation, contemporary art, and graphic design. His style and subject matter are heavily influenced by computer technologies and processes not normally associated with the act of making art and serve as a vehicle to explore the role of painting and fine art in contemporary culture. Jerome has strong illustrative skills which are heralded in the commission for Windermere Primary School in which he built an alphabet city as a pencil sketch for the early learning centre. The work is designed to the Reggio Emilia philosophy and meet the needs of the building users.
Jerome’s deepest passions lie in painting, drawing and design. A recent example of this can be seen in a body of work commissioned for Jennings Australia creating small and large works responding to the times and our virtual and digital reality. This can also be seen in the work titled ‘Medusa’, selected as a finalist in the 2017 Kilgour Art Prize and makes up part of a series of ongoing bitmap paintings. Using pixelation to depict a life-size female nude, the work raises issues related to gender whilst challenging the role of traditional figurative painting in today’s society.
