Sallie Moffatt's work is a study in perception, reflecting on the interposition of the artist between subject matter and artwork. Working in a range of traditional media, Moffatt's art traces a sequence of moments in which Self and Subject converge and diverge, jostling for position and attention and eventually locating themselves tenuously within the frame. Sallie Moffatt is a graduate of the National Art School (Sydney) where she won the John Olsen Prize for Drawing. She is a five-times finalist in the Dobell Prize for Drawing and a finalist in both the Brett Whiteley Travelling Scholarship and the Portia Geach Portrait Prize. She has exhibited extensively over two decades and her work is held in many collections, including the Art Gallery of NSW permanent collection.
