Tuesday 9 February – Sunday 21 February
open Wednesday – Sunday, 12 noon – 6pm
In Nymphéas, Sydney-based artists Paul Greedy and Another Artist, and French artists Antoine Aguila and Thomas Guichard, invite you into a world that contemplates light as the most fundamental and essential element of a work of art.
Focusing on digital, optical and meditative landscapes, in the moment of poetic reflection, the artist reveals the simplicity of form, revisits the elegance of light and displays the beauty of colour and tone in the manner of Monet’s Nymphéas.
While the Mils Gallery door is closed for January 2010, Alison Johnson’s atmospheric paintings are keeping the windows of 15 Randle Street arted.

exploration into the medium of painting in relation to digital imagery
Alison Johnson - Livingstone Road Reflection 4 - oil on masonite
“It seems to me that our experience of life today is informed more through digital images than it is directly from life itself. This idea forms the basis for my painting from ‘lens-formulated images’ in an effort to understand this phenomenon.
My work utilises digital images as source material and digital technology as a tool in the process of image-making with paint. I am interested in what happens in the process of translation of imagery from the digital to the painted form, in describing a distance from the direct experience of reality.” Alison Johnson

Alexander Jackson Wyatt - On Site (detail) - oil on canvas - 2009
Series-based paintings looking at the burnt structures of the White Bay Hotel, Balmain
In mid to late 2007, the White Bay Hotel burnt down and has since drawn my interest in how it embodies the idea of place, in both the landmark and monument, to time and change. The paintings presented are a record of a personal relationship with the specific site and how particular forms crystalize in ones mind after change in the physical environment.
