‘Atherreyurre’ is a deepening of my work with this subject, I wanted to challenge myself with a sustained focus. As a body it articulates the passage of light over the course of a day. The works became at once temporal and atemporal.
N.Smith Gallery is delighted to present Atherreyurre, Thea Perkins' fourth solo exhibiiton with the gallery.
Atherreyurre seeks to push Thea's landscape painting practice further. Thirteen paintings document the sun rising and setting over The Old Telegraph Station outside Mparntwe / Alice Springs, exploring not only time, but colour and form.
Included in this exhibition is a new time-lapse animation of 10 paintings from the series with sound recorded on site.
