PANCAKE

‘Pancake’ (2024) is a non-profit organisation that works with selected artists whose art reflects a blend of tradition and modernity influenced by Asian folk art, anime/manga, pop culture, vibrant colours and playfulness. The concept was originally inspired by the ‘superflat’ movement (coined and popularised by Takashi Murakami). Similarly, we want to challenge the boundaries around art by blurring the distinction between high and low culture in order to be accessible to everyone. Through participation in curated events and exhibitions, our intention is to change how this style of art can often be overlooked and misunderstood in Australia.

Unencumbered by societal pressures or expectations, the artist depicts abstract female figures coming together in dance and delight, where bodies move and exist together freely. From growing up to university, Brownlie has always been inspired by the ways women communicate and bemused by the underlying rivalry that often permeates female relationships; where hostility and control triumphs over empathy and kindness. She is both intrigued and unsettled by the ways young women pull themselves apart only to compare their strengths and weaknesses to the other women around them.
