A collection of varied paintings by four artists in residence – Jennifer Taranto, Tommy Salmon, Van Xavier, and Rory Garland – show artmaking as an active process of participation exploring colour, line and form.
Taranto, with paint, and Salmon, through photography, respond to and capture or reimagine the magical qualities of the landscape, while Xavier mixes paint and soil in an abstract process that shapes his art in multiple ways. Garland’s artworks exhibit deep personal realisations, paired with primitive mark-making techniques that are, to him, a form of meditation.
