Traditional Art meets Fashion Photography

Corinne Lewis, a sassy Brisbane based artist, is holding her latest exhibition in Melbourne at the Metro5 Gallery, 1214 High St Armadale. The exhibition runs from the 9th to the 27th of July.

Corinne's unique manipulation of classic fashion photography into her immaculate paintings need to be seen to be believed. With a rarely parallelled masterful command of lighting and textures, Corinne's paintings appear to jump of the canvas. While most people need to double take to realise that Corinne's paintings aren't actually prints on canvas, the illusion is broken when the individual character of detail shines though on closer investigation. Here at ID Couture we fully confess our love of both Corinne and her work and would adore any of her paintings gracing our walls. This is one artist to surely watch closely.
