Born in Melbourne, Australia in 1929 Hallandal was the daughter of an amateur painter and architect. She studied sculpture and ceramics and RMIT c.1950 and at the Central School of Art in London from 1956 - 1957. From the 1960s Pam's practice shifted to focus on drawing.[3] She had originally enrolled in the sculpture department of RMIT, but was discouraged from attending because of her small stature and minimal limp, a result of childhood polio.[4]
Careeredit
Hallandal's initial work was focused on small scale modernist sculpture. However, from the early the 1970s to the present day she became well known for drawing and printmaking. Hallandal taught at the George Bell School, was the Head of drawing at Prahran Technical College, which later became Victoria College Prahran, finishing her long and dedicated career in education at Victorian College of the Arts, Melbourne. Hallandel championed observational drawing, draftsmanship and drawing education keeping the practice alive within the tertiary syllabus in Victoria.
Workedit
Hallandal's drawings are figurative charcoal, pastel and ink works on paper. Using dramatic effects through contrasting light and shadow Hallandel's works are dark and expressive. She recorded her distinctive vision of the world and the life that takes place around her from prosaic details of suburban life to tragic and cataclysmic world events.[5] Portraits, self-portraits, global and daily scenes like the triptychTo the tune of the cash register, 1991,[6] Hallandels's works are bold, gestural and often foreboding.
