About this item

JAMES ETTELSON
Not enough socks
acrylic and mixed media on canvas
32.5 x 32.5 cm (framed)

Sydney based artist James Ettelson’s joyous palette, polychromatic patterns, energetic mark-making and effervescent, explosive forms visualise our collective need to selectively focus on the glistening hope that radiates from realms of darkness. There is a simplicity to Ettelson’s imagery that challenges us to refocus on the things that matter, to mute the cacophony of life and selectively listen to the soft timbres and harmonies that underscore the things, the people, the landscapes we love.

James Ettelson has exhibited throughout Sydney and has been featured in several notable publications, including Monster Children (2014), Real Living Magazine (2014), Brace Magazine (2014) and Stab Magazine (2012). He has previously collaborated with boutique Australian surf brand, McTavish, for their art board series. His work is held in private collections in Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand, Switzerland and the USA, as well as in Artbank and the public collection of Ovolo Hotel, Woolloomooloo.

James Ettelson has chosen to donate 100% of the proceeds from this work to NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service (WIRES).

WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.) has been rescuing and caring for wildlife for over 30 years and is the largest wildlife rescue organisation in Australia. In WIRES history they have never seen a concurrent series of emergencies events like those that began in November. Hundreds of fires over weeks have burnt over 4.9 million hectares of land in NSW alone. Many animals were already struggling with a lack of water and food due to the drought. With the fires destroying unprecedented amounts of habitat, food shortages have increased and lack of suitable habitat will be a significant long-term challenge for surviving wildlife.
