Inspired by a series of personal snapshots of the buildings of central Melbourne, Linda Pickering has interpreted the proximity of these towering structures to each other and the reflective surfaces in her continued exploration of reductive abstraction.

In looking to create a level of calm, remove the noise and the unnecessary, Pickering has extended her habitual limited palette. The result is the buildings, whilst remaining, have taken on new identities and become different versions of themselves as the geometric shape and colour shift and alter their priority on the canvas and their relationship to each other.

Opening Event: Wednesday 20 March, 6.30 – 8pm.
