This suite of paintings by Eleanor Zecchin explores the symbolic potency of objects, the feelings they conjure in the present moment and our memories. As the artist explains, “flora, studio and domestic matter are the key subjects through which my sense of place and belonging are explored. I play with authenticity and the invented, the banal and the embellished through the distortive properties of storytelling.”
