Paula Ngu explores concepts of fragility and impermanence. This work consists of delicate watercolour layers of chromatic greys. The flowcharts reference the decision paths of mundane day-to-day tasks such as making dinner; dog feeding; or procrastinating. A repetitive, doodled motif acts as a mental refuge, a meditative act to relax or just be present in the moment. Each square mimics Paula's acts of being and existing.
Prior to commencing her Master of Art in 2009 Paula was a computer programmer. She has participated in public exhibitions including the recent 20th Anniversary Jenny Birt Award in which she received a Highly Commended.
