This was the first in a body of work based on views of the artist’s studio at the time, an old stable in Fitzroy, Melbourne. ‘I have spent the last few years looking at the immediate environment in which I live, both interior scenes and inner city spaces …’ (Peter Bonner, 1997). 'Interior' reveals Bonner’s pared-down approach to drawing, in which changes that result from erasing and refining charcoal lines leave ghostly traces on the paper, all contributing to the final image.
This work won the Dobell Prize for Drawing in 1997 and was acquired by the Gallery in 1997.
