Fiona Longhurst – 5 7 3 Float Fall Petals 10 Trees
For over three decades, Fiona Longhurst has cultivated a distinctive visual language grounded in pattern, repetition, and colour. A longstanding artist in the Arts Project Australia studio since 1991, her practice has evolved with quiet persistence, producing a compelling body of work. Her intricate fields of mark-making are animated by recurring motifs – floral forms, delicate compositional arrangements, and text. Through intuitive layering and patterning, Longhurst builds a personal visual lexicon. Co-published by Perimeter Editions and Arts Project Australia, 5 7 3 Float Fall Petals 10 Trees is Longhurst’s first major book, and traces her drawing, painting, and collage work across decades of studio practice. The publication – which takes the form of a workbook – features an essay by Jo Salt and is designed by Narelle Brewer for Perimeter Bureau.
Founded in 1974, Arts Project Australia is an internationally leading visual arts organisation that champions neurodivergent artists and artists with intellectual disability. Through its studio program, exhibition opportunities, and professional development pathways, Arts Project empowers more than 150 artists to develop their practice and build meaningful careers in the contemporary arts sector. Published alongside a survey exhibition at Arts Project, 5 7 3 Float Fall Petals 10 Trees celebrates Longhurst’s enduring contribution to the studio and the broader contemporary art landscape, offering insight into an artist whose evolving practice is defined by tenderness, a nuanced use of colour, and a quietly compelling sense of introspection.
