David Frazer’s intricately detailed wood engravings, etching and lithographs indicate his great command of a range of printmaking techniques. His work explores a sense of place, and the emotions of longing, nostalgia and isolation that can accompany it – with the universal yearning to be ‘somewhere else’ a common thread throughout. It exists in his figures stuck in a bleak Australian landscape, along with those fixed in a foreign locale. Combined with this is a gentle sense of whimsy and humour. Frazer’s skill as a storyteller is always present in the strong narrative component of both his paintings and prints.
On the edge of town (by day)
is Frazer’s most recent work published with Port Jackson Press. The rural scene captured is achingly familiar – a back paddock littered with old cars, corrugated iron, and an assortment of junk left to rust. The honesty in its description brilliantly evokes that very real feeling of melancholia. This piece from his most recent body of work views the world from the perspective of the no-hoper or loser, looking in from the outskirts of town.
Awards include the 2004 Broken Hill Outback Art Prize (1st Prize), Broken Hill Regional Art Gallery, and the Keith Wingrove Bookplate Design Award, 2002. His work is represented throughout Australia and overseas, including the Art Gallery of New South Wales, State Library of Victoria and the Print Council of Australia.
