Biography:
Del Kathryn Barton is an Australian artist who began drawing at a young age, and studied at UNSW Art & Design. She soon became known for her psychedelic fantasy works which she has shown in solo and group exhibitions across Australia and overseas.
In 2008 and 2013 she won the Archibald Prizes for portraiture presented by the Art Gallery of New South Wales. In 2015 her animated film Oscar Wilde’s The Nightingale and the Rose won the Film Victoria Erwin Rado Award for Best Australian Short Film.
Barton's Painting are fantasy-like and include female figures merged with flowers and plants.
Historically flowers have often been used to represent femininity. In later works she included images of male figures.
