Following the success of Kate’s previous exhibition at MARS, we are delighted to present new works by contemporary landscape artist, Kate Lewis. Featuring over 25 works painted on recycled and reclaimed materials, Kate’s works respond to her recent time on the Victorian Peninsula.

In collaboration with the environment, Kate layered paint on sheets of scrap metal and recycled materials. Each painting is a memory of time spent in this liminal place, the bush between, where the bay and ocean come to meet on the Peninsula. Restricted by the gamble of found materials, each painting surface presents a new challenge in scale and shape.

Sydney born, Melbourne based, artist Kate McKenzie Lewis’ work is steeped in the Australian landscape. Lewis is a Hadley’s Art Prize, Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize and a Len Fox Painting Award Finalist.
