As It Was

Join us for the opening reception on Wednesday 23 July from 5:30-8pm.

“Inspired by a three-month solo expedition into the remote outback of northern Australia, these works emerged from a place of deep reflection. While elements of colour and texture pay homage to the harsh, arid landscape, the inspiration for this body of work developed primarily through the contrast between solitude and self-reliance, and the subsequent re-emergence into society. The polarisation and discordance of two very different ways of being.” (Isabelle de Kleine, 2025)
