Marion Pearson - Cultivation
"It occurs to me that there is an inherited patterning here, one that leaves its mark on us, that we in turn imprint on the next generation. So when painting my landscapes, I use stencils to suggest the struggle to bring order and a gentle beauty into a physical world that has so much terrible splendour. My portraits link mother to daughter to granddaughter, suggesting the gentle overlay of elements of our parents’ personalities within our own individuality."

Suzanna Lang's Still Waters draws on the artist’s personal experience of a childhood spent in and around Lavender Bay and the equally influential experience of her contact with the area’s principal art forebear, Brett Whiteley. The idea of the past as a wellspring of inspiration for the present unfolds in these images with a freshness and liveliness that comes from Suzanna’s intrinsic love of colour, paint and feeling. |

Herbarium is a collection of handmade porcelain bowls by Shannon Garson. Their forms are soft and undulating and the oval shape of the bowls reference the cameo. Each piece has a sepia portrait of a leaf on the matt exterior while the interior of the form glows with rich, saturated colour. Shannon uses the convention of portrait painting to examine the intricacies of leaves and petals. The rich interior functions as a metaphor against the detailed exterior reminding us of the mystery and hidden spectrum to be found in the smallest leaf. |

Suzanna Lang
Life is just a bowl of cherries
This current exhibition signals Lang’s maturing confidence with both her subject and technique. Her paintings comment on the big things in life by celebrating the small things – a bowl of cherries can be just that, or it can symbolize the truth of beauty, the reason for being or a mother’s loving care. |

Suzanna Lang

In this latest collection of paintings, Suzanna returns to her purest source of inspiration, the Still Life.
Still life subjects are seldom revealed in such a state of calculated urgency. The challenge for Lang has been to reconcile a commitment to spontaneity and unpredictability without jeopardizing the tradition and serenity of her subject matter. |

The Landscape - John Gilfillan
"The landscape is an important element of the Australian society and its culture. Even in the major cities we are conscious of it. Even in its absence we are pine for it. Our notion of the landscape is subtle. It reveals and withholds.
It abstracts and repeats its motifs. Yet the variations and shifts in patterns hold our attention as we gaze at it." |
