Sandhills to Seascapes offers an intimate insight into an artist who has forged a visual language entirely his own, and showcases a unique journey, and the raw rich colours of the Mallee to the expansive light of the Aireys Inlet coast.
Expressionistic and immediately recognisable, this exhibition spans three defining phases of Warhurst’ career, revealing Warhurst’s highly individual and enduring connection to place. Bringing together predominantly unseen early oil paintings from Eddie Warhurst’s private collection and unveiling a new body of work specifically for this exhibition.
The exhibition reveals a profound shift in colour and atmosphere between the semi-desert landscapes of the Mallee and the coastal environment of Aireys Inlet and offers collectors a unique opportunity to engage with these deeply personal and significant works. Birds, a recurring motif, animate the landscapes and underscore the artist’s instinctive approach to composition and movement.
