Kristian Hawker lives and works from an old houseboat on a quiet stretch of the Noosa River, on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. Using the houseboat rooftop as his studio, his abstract works directly engage with the elements to form abstract landscapes and seascapes.
Hawker's paintings are inspired by aerial views of rugged Australian terrain. He works with a potent alchemy of acrylic, oil and saltwater on linen. This combination, along with natural forces — sunlight, rain, and wind — interacts with the materials over the course of months. Each work is a slow and poetic collaboration with nature; these elements are not only subjects, but also active participants in his process.
Hawker's past work as a potter and filmmaker further inform his works — "each work is a reflection of place, memory, and the continuous evolution of the place that we all call home."
