STEVE SEDGWICK
4 JULY - AUGUST 5
Steve Sedgwick is a Ballarat based artist who
sees more than landscape. In his series Painted
Land, Steve celebrates the complex colours and
ever-changing nature of the Australian natural
landscape. He slowly reduces the elements down
to their constituent parts of tone and shape and
colour until they barely resemble the landscape
that inspired them. Steve paints in the open
air, which gives each paint stroke a sense of
place and time. He also works within the studio,
taking the memories and fragments back to his
enclosed environment and working his pieces
into distinct abstracts. His confidence of mark
making brings to mind Fred Williams and Arthur
Streeton.
Drinks and meet the artist on 5th July
