2021 Artist-in-Residence Announced

We are pleased to announce the selection of LeAnne Vincent as the 2021 Clifford Gouldson Lawyers Artist-in-Residence.

Clifford Gouldson Director Amanda Tolson said it was a difficult selection process with a wide range of artists from across the region applying to the 2021 program.

“In the end, LeAnne’s body of work, sophisticated style and enthusiasm for sharing her creative practice stood out amongst a quality group of candidates,” she said.

LeAnne Vincent is an award-winning, photo-based visual artist creating conceptual images that investigate human behaviour and environments by drawing inspiration from natural and urban areas, public and private spaces, and shared memories. 

In 2020, LeAnne won the Holding Redlich ‘Art for Life’ award and the Spotlight award at the Flying Arts Qld Regional Art Awards.

LeAnne has also successfully exhibited in numerous group and solo exhibitions in Regional Queensland galleries, Victoria’s Brunswick St Gallery in Melbourne, and Tasmania’s Cataract Gorge Basin Cottage in Launceston.

As the 2021 Clifford Gouldson Artist-in-Residence LeAnne will spend each Friday over 8 weeks in the firm’s office.

“We are very much looking forward to the opportunity to see LeAnne at work and for our team here at Clifford Gouldson to learn more about her artistic process,” Amanda said.

“In the past our Artist-in-Residence program has brought something new and exciting to our firm and the team is really looking forward to welcoming LeAnne to our office.”

LeAnne said, “It’s such an unusual and intriguing location for an artist in residency and different to any I’ve participated in before.”

“I’m excited to be selected for this opportunity and look forward to creating a new body of work that features imagery drawn from Toowoomba’s architecture, parks and gardens.”

“I look forward to engaging new audiences and broadening my network.”

The Residency will conclude with an end of residency Opening Night function to be held on Friday 5 November 2021.
