Art of Lunch Website www.artoflunch.com.au *********** About the artist Jo Langley *********** From her vantage point at Blackheath, Jo Langley finds delight and inspiration in the diversity of Blue Mountains environments. Intersections of art and environment, nature and culture, are at play in her digital montages that capture the essence of the world around us. From sweeping views of ancient rock faces and forests to the moody, gnarled conifers that line residential streets and parks. Immersing herself in the preparatory stage, Jo observes, selects and photographs vistas of wilderness landscapes and cloud formations, as well as close-ups of emblematic flora and decorative detail. She incorporates the light and colour that changes depending on the time of day, weather and extremes of season. She spends countless hours collaging digital images, a meticulous process of layering and merging elements into the completed image, using processes similar to the traditional techniques of assembling collages. Jo's 'Blue Mountains' suite incorporates her fascination with Folk Art - that is the traditional decorative expression of the culture and community of ordinary people and their inherent aesthetic possibilities. Her montages are edged with borders replicating antique or retro friezes, whether drawn from decorative historical photographs and frames, posters and postcards,, or old fashioned stamped tin designs such as the lids of biscuit tins. ************** The Musicians Paddy Connor will be joined by Melanie Long on Banjo, Mandolin and vocals ************** It is the fusion of Folk Art and Blue Mountains heritage that harmonises Jo Langley's exhibition with Paddy Connor's flamboyant musical genres. With intuitive skill he pulls apart the cogs and wheels of Irish, Blue Grass and Folk Music and re-makes these elements into his own earthy, modern sound. His instrumental repertoire ranges from twanging banjo tunes to storytelling guitar and stomping jigs played on the uilleann pipes. Paddy is known for his bands Lime and Steel and Witches Leap and he draws his inspiration from the hanging swamps and heritage railway lines of the Blue Mountains. His convict laments give way to pagan gospel, hillbilly boilers and the odd retro 1980's tune. ********
