Linda Buller expresses her spirituality
and concerns of her surroundings. Almost everything that
she sees on earth is inspiring: mountains, animals, and
people. Linda often travels to have a new experience before
starting a series of artwork. While traveling, she feels
like a sponge which absorbs things before bringing them
out again after being contemplated. For Linda, a painting
is a utensil, something that helps us think about what we
want in our life and which road we want to travel.
Linda started painting at the age of 14
and studied fine arts at the Bendigo Institute of Technology
in Melbourne for three years. Linda was also an active member
of the Fitzroy (Melbourne) Arts Scene for ten years as a
performer, poet and visual artist participating in both
group and solo exhibitions. Having lived and worked in Bali
for ten years, Linda's career has blossomed internationally,
with work being sold to collections in Italy, Australia,
Singapore, New Zealand and Indonesia. Her multicultural
lifestyle permits transcendental creativity in her artistic
processes, and sensitivity to the subjectivity to experience.
In her solo exhibition at Jenggala Art Gallery,
Linda wants to reveal the abstract pieces which reflect
diverse concerns on animals, environment and nature. To
enjoy these artworks, viewers will discover their own concepts,
ideas, and various possibilities. Paintings, Linda says,
are music, they talk to your soul; if something resonates
then it is because your soul is seeing or hearing the painting.
When your hair stands on end or when you get goose bumps…well,
that's your soul enjoying.
