Patricia Wilson-Adams has been a practicing artist for a lifetime and has had a career as an educator, writer and arts organiser.
Education: National Art School, Sydney – Atelier 17, Paris with French Government scholarship – MFA College of Fine Art, University of NSW.
She has worked in many print workshops and has held residencies all over the world. She has exhibited prints and sculpture in many major regional galleries with a survey exhibition, stain me with the intensity of black at Newcastle Art Gallery showing the past 20 years’ work.
Patricia Wilson-Adams made an important contribution to education at The University of Newcastle where she taught Printmaking, Drawing and Sculpture electives. She was supervisor to many PhD and MFA candidates.
Her work focuses on issues pertaining to environment, cultural landscapes and land usage and is based philosophically on a study of Ecophenomenology. Her work could be classified as Post-Minimalist in that it eliminates the descriptive, excludes the pictorial, narrative and the fictive, with a focus on essential form and the reductive. She works in sculpture, installation, print media and artist’s books and could be best described as being a polyvalent artist.
