Artist Profile — Tamami Davidson
Imbedded with a considered calm, Tamami Davidson draws on an escapist whimsy in conjuring and creating each of her unique works. While her journey to becoming the artist she is today took its own turns, the path that led her was an inevitable one, returning to a true sense of purpose. Excited by the creative process and infallible need to explore, her works capture her own curiosity with the world, often expressed through softly muted tones with an occasional brighter palette.
Drawing on her combined Japanese heritage and Australian upbringing, Tamami aims to animate through her innate creative wiring. Her early years immersed within music, both as a classical pianist and teacher, ensured her connection to enlivening the senses through the Arts to be firmly at the core of why she creates. Her early experimentation with watercolours when she later started her own family, awakened her creative wiring, and became the beginnings of her work today.
Aimed at inciting a joyous sense of wonder, each piece through its abstraction is layered from a base of lightness and colour and how each interact with the canvas and her own hand. Using a medium of mostly acrylics, the outcome of each piece is determined only once upon approach, where she lets her instinct guide her.
Based in Queensland currently, Tamami creates soft and delicate musings of the abstract kind, flowing freely as she approaches each new piece. Her work garners her own nurturing nature and is an expression of introspective gratitude.
