Overly Lovely

Michael Reid Murrurundi is delighted to welcome back Tarntanya/Adelaide-based contemporary painter Jessie Feitosa with her first solo presentation in almost two years, a dazzling series of still lifes and portraits with the suitably sanguine title Overly Lovely. Feitosa’s show serves up a delightful summer banquet of simple morsels, festive tipples and lush florals – all rendered in warm, bright tones and a striking graphic style that brings contemporary verve to the still-life genre.

With their clean lines softened by washes of natural light and poppy pastels offset by glamorous burgundies, the artist’s elegant compositions feel redolent of languorous days filled with long, rambling lunches that stretch effortlessly into aperitivo hour amid a whirl of laughter, conversation and music. We look forward to welcoming visitors to Overly Lovely by Jessie Feitosa – a beautiful new exhibition that feels perfectly tuned to holiday mode and alive with the season’s ebullience, conviviality and hearty abundance.
