Rachel Perrin
Rachel Perrin is a Melbourne based artist. Her work asks the question, ‘Is there an essence of someone that may be captured?’ Through drawing, painting and burning, she aims to tap into a person’s sense of self, so that the end response of the subject to the finished work is as important as her own understanding.
Conceptually she is interested in the sitter’s response to his or her own painted likeness, in the value we still place on the artist’s process, and in how it feels and what it means to the subject to be painted.
