Under the Watchful Eye
Michael Springer and Helene Olivia Smith
Showing 22nd January 2019 - 9th February 2019

Exhibition Information
Under the Watchful Eye - Michael Springer and Helene Olivia Smith
Undeniably influenced and surrounded by wild southern seas, eroding volcanic hills and ever shifting stones, Smith and Springer observe and absorb their environment, producing concurrent bodies of work from their shared studio and home at Birdlings Flat.
Working in clay, Smith re-creates found objects from her surrounding environment, modelling small-scale sculptural arrangements, in the still life traditions of Vanitas and Victorian nature studies and exploring local symbolism within the landscape?s flora and fauna.
While, Springer works intuitively, inviting the painting to evolve unhindered. Tapping into the strong energies that seep and surge, giving expression to intangible forces and murmurings.
