“…Living and working on residency in the south of Spain in 2022. “ in Gaucin, two hours from Picasso’s birthplace of Malaga, Joanna was immediately grabbed by a strange sensation of reaquanintance despite the new territory…. Through her vibrant, textured reds, pinks and yellows, it feels as though we are transported into a hybrid Australian Spanish Landscape, moving among the familiar and the unfamiliar.”

“The post impressionistic landscapes of painter Joanna Cole merge the pastoral plains of Australia with a personal expression of colour and brushstroke. Although the forms that appear on her contemporary canvases draw from scenes the artist has experienced on her road trips, Joanna eschews a faithful portrayal of place instead reassembling her memories via symbolic processes that are heavy with themes of romanticism and wonder. “
