Exhibition Opening:

The Space of Light

Virginia Cuppaidge and Naoise Halloran-Mackay

Shown in tandem, the works of Virginia Cuppaidge and Naoise Halloran-Mackay reveal a common interest in the pictorial space of light. Mobilised through a sense of movement, colour, rather than form, dominates Virginia Cuppaidge’s paintings. Their radiant and sensuous surfaces reflect both the opalescent skies of New York and the expansive space and light of Australia. Gently referencing architecture, Naoise Halloran-Mackay’s paintings suggest change and possibility. His ‘doorways’ can be understood as transition points or thresholds between humankind and nature, interiority and exteriority.
