Anne Wallace: Passing the River at Woogaroo Reach
Contemporary Australian painter Anne Wallace is widely admired for her strange and suspenseful dream-like scenes. Her landscapes, cityscapes and interiors are made rich with particulars and always meticulously rendered. Circumstantial details — decor and architectural forms, outfits and poses that portray a mid-century glamour — are used to brush out a veneer of normalcy, yet underlying neuroses and more dramatic conflicts still haunt each scene — some so violent that they rupture the pristine surface with their terror.
Portrait of Sue Treweek 2013 and Passing the River at Woogaroo Reach 2015 are the product of a converging series of events centred around Wolston Park, a Queensland psychiatric hospital that opened in 1865.

Between 1994 and 1996, Anne Wallace completed a Masters of Art (distinction) at the Slade School of Fine Art, London while on an Anne & Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships.
Her paintings portray scenes of faint familiarity, evoking in us feelings of nostalgic longing, feelings which are unsettled by the eerie nonchalance of the subjects and their set-like surrounds. Her practice draws on pop culture including literary novels, music and film, and while much of her work is influenced by time living in London and Paris, she was born and raised in Brisbane in the 1970s, and this underpins her work.
Over time Wallace has developed a unique style and practice creating paintings that resemble film stills, exploring themes of love, anxiety, childhood and the search for identity. She depicts scenes that capture a moment in time where something is about to happen or has just happe
