Shelves of Memories

Murrurundi favourite Brooke Dalton will return to the gallery in with a new series of paintings that transport us to a world of interiors lined wall-to-wall with beautiful clothbound tomes. Shelves of Memories celebrates the warm nostalgia and emotional pull of spaces that teem with colourful books, painted ceramics, fresh-cut flowers and collected curios amassed in a spirit of eclecticism and whimsy.

Brought to life with a loose and energetic painting style that perfectly matches the sense of exuberance, more-is-more abundance and bohemian insouciance of the libraries Dalton depicts, works from the show can now be previewed and acquired by request ahead of the opening on Wednesday, 9 April.
