Melissa Boughey: Step Outside
Highlights
- Explore richly layered abstractions that capture the vibrant energies of Western Australia's wetlands.
- Experience the interplay of light and reflections as Boughey translates her surroundings into stunning canvases.
- Engage with each artwork, inviting you into a dynamic space of observation and sensation.
- Visit Flinders Lane Gallery to witness Melissa Boughey's captivating third solo exhibition, Step Outside.
Flinders Lane Gallery is delighted to present Step Outside, Melissa Boughey’s third solo exhibition with the gallery.
Responding to her newly built studio, nestled at the edge of the wetlands on her family farm in the south-west of Western Australia, Boughey channels a renewed attentiveness to her surroundings into a stunning new series of richly layered, jubilant abstractions.
Her works do not describe the landscape so much as translate its shifting energies: the criss-crossing of branches, the doubling of reflections across still water, and the chromatic recalibrations of light as the day unfolds. Closely composed and densely worked, each canvas becomes a site of movement and return, an image that holds the viewer in the charged space between observation and sensation.
