You are warmly invited to the opening of the Stillness art exhibition. A collection of creative mixed media art and poetry, which emerged from a profoundly challenging chapter in my life. In the midst of turmoil, I turned to my enduring sanctuaries: writing and painting. These practices helped navigate a personal labyrinth of discomfort, transformation and learning. Supported by a circle of fellow artists, I embarked on a journey that culminated in these Stillness works.

The essence of stillness lies in its ability to invite presence, evoke introspection, and suspend a moment in time. Where movement demands energy and attention, stillness holds a quiet power. It creates space to pause, breathe, and connect on a deeper emotional level. Through minimalism, subdued colour palettes, gentle lines, and an open mind, these works seek to evoke silence, solitude, and transcendence.

Stillness in art is not the absence of life, but rather a distilled concentration of it. An invitation to hear what is unspoken, to feel what cannot be rushed, and to experience the sacred within the quiet.

Please join me at 5:30pm on Saturday 12 July at Studio Brunswick, 1/374 Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley.
