Regina Noakes
BIOGRAPHY
Regina Noakes is an international
artist, born in Singapore. She lives in Australia with her husband and
three children where her distinctive and personal style has a cult
following. Well travelled, Regina has studied and taught art and music
in Singapore, Italy, the USA and Australia. She has had several solo
shows in New York, and Australian cities including Sydney, and has
participated in numerous group exhibitions in New York, Australia,
Europe – 2001 Florence Biennale, London – “Celebrations – Jubilee Arts
2002” and in 2003 Chicago again, at the Three Arts Club. Regina has had
paintings reproduced on various occasions for cover pages – Western
Review Arts Magazine, New York Expo 2000, Moondance Magazine (UK), CD
cover image for WA Guitar Ensemble, and several articles on art. She has
been a recipient of three Australian Visual Arts Grants and has twice
won the Perpetual Trophy, Overall Winner for the Western Australia
Society of Arts. Her work is represented in numerous private, corporate
and public collections around the world, including the Ministry of Water
Resources. Sultanate of Oman, Fulham Palace, London, The Singapore
Economic Board, Singapore, Perth Electoral Commission, Australia, Toyota
Australia.
Viewing life as an aesthetic experience
Regina translates memories and observations onto her canvasses. There
are stories behind most of these paintings, and drama in the universals
of companionship, love, age and acquiescence. A quiet sadness, even an
air of gravity, sometimes occupies her figures, yet others exhibit light
and joy. Several of her large-scale figurative paintings have references
to herself and to her daughter. A point of focus in some of the
experiences is the Doll, as a repository and reflection of human
experiences, sometimes almost human, and more besides. There are
references to Mughal art – flat surfaces, strong colours, cloisonné and
also to Romanesque paintings – the iconic work from that period, and
also the frequent focus on women. In a unique, figurative style that is
poetic, spiritual and sometimes quirky, Regina relies on the
contribution of the viewer to translate each work into his or her own
personal
account.

Brief
Acquaintances by Regina Noakes;
Here are some images, many based in one way or another on the two books
“Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” and “Through the Looking-Glass”. Carroll’s
Alice has been a perennial muse for many painters and writers. For me it
began with the “Fall down the Rabbit Hole” and then “Through the
Looking-Glass”. I have borrowed Carroll’s story elements involving
nostalgia, a love of childhood vision and the use of parody or satire.
Alice is always at the centre of the story encountering fools, mystics,
and perhaps some of her own demons. I do not attempt to dramatize the
stories and often find myself recreating episodes and characters in my
own visual language. The unreality of the tales has a wild familiarity.
We have all had encounters with the absurd. The dreamlike shifts of
place and time find Alice in situations where she seeks enlightenment.
The journey takes the young girl into curiouser and curiouser encounters
within the dream from which she ultimately awakes. There have been many
analyses of the stories and of Carroll, and I have avoided all of them.
Do not decipher the images: just experience them. That’s what they’re
for. |
