Within Fairbairn’s painting practice is an influence of nature, where she explores the metaphysical philosophy of ecology and her own body. The result is something akin to art as meditation; each consideration of process, colours, gestures playing out until the artist finds a resolution. The works reveal themselves in active gestures or layers of paint. They reveal a belonging, connecting Fairbairn’s time in the landscape, and evolving within nature. Spending time in nature becomes a meditation on being present in the moment, a feeling that comes through in her paintings, each gesture a methodology of grounding.

– Emma Kate Wilson, 2020

As a painter, there is an irresistible and magnetic pull towards the discomfort of the new, utilising paint to process and explore. These paintings often reference the landscape as place, as both external and internal locations and as portals. Transparent layering is important to allow hints at the history of the painting actions. Re written, overwritten, redacted and altered, I seek to bring atmospheric aspects to the act of painting, focusing on the activation of the surface through the transcendent language of painting.
