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. Her intricate fields of mark-making are animated by recurring motifs: floral forms, delicate compositional arrangements, and text. Through intuitive layering and patterning, the artist builds a personal visual lexicon. This is Longhurst’s first major book, tracing her drawing, painting, and collage work across decades of studio practice. Taking the form of a workbook, it features an essay by Jo Salt and is designed by Narelle Brewer.
