This new small exhibition of paintings is based on direct observations of things.
Choices triggered sometimes by chance combinations, others use colour and light as the starting point.
Through unusual pairings of objects, these paintings explore light in all its transient, playful and lyrical states."Robertson was part of a group of figurative artists associated with the Gotham studios in Perth, who looked at the legacy of figurative elements of traditional art making and picture imaging. His works have been characterised by a strong sense of psychological tension and draw reference from such artists as Eric Fischl and Lucian Freud.” 'mix tape' catalogue, The Art Gallery of Western Australia |
