Drawn from the industrial buildings on Sydney's Cockatoo Island, the architectural paintings by Sybil Curtis establish a linear rhythm between light and shadow. Executed in precise detail, her interest in texture within the urban environment is conveyed; with the tonal range of the deep blues and greys imparting atmospheric qualities to the rigid, geometric structures.
Morgan Shimeld's third solo exhibition at Brenda May Gallery marks the first inclusion of colour in the linear sculptures of positive and negative space. The collection is balanced between solid monolithic shapes and 'traced' forms of bent mild steel, outlining the volume of the sculpture with each work becoming an individual study in abstraction.
