Amanda Tye: A Coastline and Between
Driven by the dissatisfaction of today’s fast-paced lifestyle, artist Amanda Tye seeks to capture places resembling untouched paradises, playing with perspective and colour to offer a still and quiet perspective of Sydney’s coastal landscape. Her distinct style dances between representation and abstraction, which often translates through the tensions between the natural environment with the man-made world.

Mellissa Read Devine: Between Earth and Sky
Mellissa Read Devine portrays the natural world in a glorious kaleidoscope of colour, shape and texture – ‘For me, painting is all about the process; I enjoy the dance of mark making with strong sweeps of direction and tone that are eventually tamed into more representational imagery. I invite the viewer to see the Australian bush through a vibrant and optimistic vision of colour and light.’
