More about Josephine:
Josephine Tan is a Dunedin based artist who is currently completing a Graduate Diploma in Visual Arts (Painting) at the Dunedin School of Art. Born in Malaysia, Josephine’s family migrated to Melbourne when she was 11. Josephine moved to Dunedin with her partner and two cats in early 2023 and has spent her time here in Dunedin focussing on her art.
Ageing, ageism and the finite nature of life are central themes in her art practice. Josephine’s works are predominantly figurative. Sometimes her figurative paintings are portraits; but more often the paintings are of people in the situational contexts, a snapshot of their lives. She finds landscapes an apt metaphor for the cycle of life. She also loves painting cats as she enjoys their ability to live in the moment.
Josephine mainly paints with oils (on aluminium or MDF board, or on paper). She draws using charcoal, conte and graphite.
