Drawing - Paul Compton, Paul Compton, Teapot and Teacup Ensemble, 2010

Artists statement

The contemporary art work by Paul Compton of a handmade book, teapot and two works on paper is inspired by Bundoora Homestead. Paul Compton is a local artist who grew up in Reservoir and still lives locally. His work reflects his affection for and knowledge of Bundoora Homestead. In the recent exhibition High Tea at Bundoora Homestead Art Centre this work was the favourite of visitors. The handmade book has a pop up image of the Homestead and visitors are encouraged to handle the book. It is an absorbing interactive art work with deep roots in the local community.
