You are invited to experience ‘Vessel’ a very special solo exhibition by Sarah Hickey, held from Tuesday October 13 to Sunday October 25 at Graydon Gallery. Sarah Hickey’s latest collection, ‘Vessel’, builds upon an oeuvre of images concerned with the conception, birthing and rebirthing of forms, of selves. Building on and refining Hickey’s trademark stylistic features of stencilled patterning, rich embellishment, floral motifs, birds, and beautiful women gazing skyward or directly at the observer, this collection also introduces the traditional still life into her work. Full, pregnant vases of flowers, dripping and abundant with heavy blooms, spill onto the canvas extending beyond the frames. Thickly applied oils, stylised line and vibrant colour speak of an interior world, of impression and emotion, rather than real, material still life arrangements.

Come along to join the opening night celebrations, where guests will have the opportunity to meet Sarah and gain deeper insight into ‘Vessel’ on Friday October 16, from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm at Graydon Gallery. See more information online.
