Toni Vallance
RICHMOND, VIC
Born in Aotearoa New Zealand and currently based in Naarm/Melbourne, I am a visual artist specialising in layered, abstract mixed-media paintings.
MessageThis painting unfolds through the entangled forces of body, pigment, support, and space. Working without a fixed image, colour moves as an embodied force—spilling, resisting, responding to the gestures that shape it. Marks accumulate through an intra-active process where meaning emerges not from expression, but from the interplay of materials and affect.
The image extends beyond the stretcher bars and sits on top of the frame, drawing attention to the edges as zones of leakage and continuation. Here, the boundary between artwork and world is troubled—colour refuses containment, and form becomes a site of becoming.
