“Moving to the country has allowed me to view my new world with ‘young eyes’. I soak up the subtlety of atmosphere, colour and changing sculptural earth forms.” Dotti Le Sage

Dotti Le Sage is one of the outstanding artists in Tyger’s upcoming group show, *Living in Another World*.

Tyger is thrilled to welcome back Dotti Le Sage to the gallery for our upcoming abstract landscapes show, Living in Another World.

The show brings together around 40 artists from all over the country to show us the world we know and love through an abstracted lens.

Living in Another World runs from 19-28 April at Tyger Gallery in Yass. The online catalogue for the show will go out to subscribers soon. Sign up here now to make sure you don’t miss out on your favourite works.

Dotti’s work in the show is the gorgeous Four Fields, a 122x51cm acrylic on canvas painting. It’s a beauty.

Ahead of the show opening, Dotti told us being an early riser, being inspired by natural forms, and viewing the world through ‘young eyes’.

How would you describe your work?

“Expressive, often semi abstract. Colour drives me.”

Tell us about where and how you create your work?

“Rising early before five am gives me what l call a secret space. A few hours to feel the day begin and work in the tranquil hours before the daylight is present.”

“My studio looks out towards a garden landscape. So many textures, shapes and colours to contemplate when needed.”

What inspires you?

“Natural forms do inspire. Moving to the country has allowed me to view my new world with ‘young eyes’.”

“I soak up the subtlety of atmosphere, colour and changing sculptural earth forms.”

What do you hope people feel when they see your work?

“A sense of complex play within the landform structures. The interplay of the Initial geographical configuration and the manipulation of the surface created by human hand. A feeling of time passing with the growth and harvesting of crops.”
