About
Grayce Perry loves to play with a variety of materials to create unique mixed media pieces. In recent years she has favoured Japanese papers and inks to create sophisticated contemporary collage pieces. A fascination with the mystery and complexity of human nature is the common thread that runs through her work. Grayce’s strength lies in her power to create images that evoke an emotional response. Viewers recognize their own memories and experiences, strength, vulnerability, struggle and hope.
Grayce’s most recent series “Untold Stories” is a nod to the fact that each of our lives contains a book. We all have so many stories that we may never have shared. In this series there are words written. The words are hidden, indecipherable, representing the many mysteries and secrets within. They are all the untold stories contained in our capacious hearts.
Grayce’s work deserves to be examined closely. Although sometimes appearing simple the pieces are unexpectedly complex and symbolic.
