“When I was imagining more dynamic, complicated and possibly provocative spaces for treatment I registered women’s bodies more clearly and not in a negative way, but to be quite fertile, fecund, rich and particularly nourishing.”

This publication accompanies Natalya Hughes’s IMA-commissioned solo exhibition, The Interior, which ran from July 29 to October 1, 2022, and will tour nationally from 2023. The monograph delves into three interconnected themes within Hughes’s recent work, offering a critical reassessment of male modernists such as Freud, Kirchner, and de Kooning, and their intricate portrayals of female subjects.
The book features insightful essays by Professor Susan Best (Queensland College of Art, Griffith), Dr. Jacqueline Chlanda (UQ Art Museum), and Professor Andrew McNamara (Queensland University of Technology). It also includes a compelling interview between Hughes and curator Elspeth Pitt (National Gallery of Australia). Together, these contributions provide a thorough and nuanced exploration of Hughes’s latest artistic endeavours.
