Submerging Artist 2 - Jamie Preisz
"Submerging Artist 1 & 2 Diptych" - By Jamie Priesz
Oil on canvas, framed in Tasmanian Oak
150 x 100cm
Finalist and commended in the Bay of Fires Prize 2021, Finalist in Prospect portrait prize. This work depicts the artist reflecting on the term "Emerging Artist" as he sinks below water. The piece references a scene of "Danny" from the cult novel "He died With a Fellafel in His Hand" later played by Noah Taylor in the film adaptation. "Why is three o’clock in the morning the hour to put on Nick Cave, get depressed and kill yourself" the character laments after he rescues his partner from an attempted suicide in a bathtub. A cynical window of dark Australiana peppered with satire, the book and the film holds a special place in the artists heart.
We are delighted to be partnering with Zip Money as an additional check out option. For questions regarding this process please reach out here.
