Blake Poole
In Residence on the verandahs at Donnelly River Village
13-19 June 2022
Blake Poole is a Fremantle based muralist who designs dynamic compositions of Australian iconography, paying focus to warped perspective and saturated colour schemes. My preferred medium is aerosol, and I utilize a reductionist method of painting, using quick techniques, and raw, unrefined brush strokes.
