This month we’ll be hosting an evolving exhibition by Sunshine Coast artist Loralee Newitt. We invite you to join us for the opening night celebrations on November 5.
In her own words, Loralee’s work reflects upon the places in which we reside - physical, mental or otherwise.
‘The application of paint suggests layered movement through glimpses of memory, snippets of thought and traces of hope. My art practice is inspired by the spaces that we need for survival; the nooks of comfort, the spaces that are uncomfortable and demand expansion and the nostalgic reminiscent spaces.’
Within Loralee’s work we can draw parallels to the act of dressing... an exploration of our relationship with the world around us and a constantly shifting expression of identity, mood and intention. Loralee has also been inspired to extend herself beyond her usual medium of oil painting and will be creating wearable pieces that we will introduce throughout the month.
We look forward to sharing a gentle and introspective moment with you.
