Jaimee Peters in Art Collector magazine - words by Emil McAvoy:
“Her [Peters’] work draws from architectural images – public buildings, galleries and institutional structures – whose linear planes are abstracted and reconfigured through unexpected colour to render new forms, part-real and part-imagined.
Her selection of buildings range from local structures to examples of celebrated international ‘destination architecture’... Peters sees these buildings as emblematic of social structures which can be elitist, describing them as “detached environments with empty facades”.
The artist is intrigued by the power these institutions and their materialisation as architecture hold but there is also a subtle ambivalence underpinning her painterly response. The paintings are emptied of most contextual details, transformed into fractured, ambiguous interiors which still flirt with representation.”
