Reflections of Rachel Ruysch
Did you know that this artist made more money than Rembrandt? – watch the video and you will see!
This work revisits Rachel Ruysch through reflection—where what is incomplete becomes whole.
A half skull finds its missing side in the mirror, quietly echoing mortality, while a butterfly rests within its eye—holding both fragility and transformation. The rocking horse, split in two, becomes a strange double when reflected, hinting at a life lived in parallel—artist and mother, repetition and care.
The mirror does not just complete the image, it reveals what is often unseen: the doubling of roles, of time, of self.
Everything exists between what is there… and what is felt.
Three more days of the' Old Masters Revisited' exhibition which offers a fresh and engaging perspective on classical art, blending technical skill with contemporary creativity. The exhibition promises to delight art lovers and newcomers alike, and is not to be missed!

This is the last Sunday and last chance to catch up with me at the exhibition of the ‘Old Masters Revisited’ at the Art Centre!
I will be there today from 11am – 1pm with my original artwork Sprung, a painting I dedicated my life to for over three months, bringing it into existence brushstroke by brushstroke.
As you can see from the video one of my students, Connor, kindly posed for this work which is incredibly special to me — and I am truly grateful for his support.
The exhibition closes next Saturday, the 30th, at 12 noon.

‘Old Masters Revisited ‘
– Where the Past Meets the Unexpected at Bribie Arts Centre is a bold and captivating exhibition by local artist Sabine Von Graz, reimagining classical masterpieces with a playful contemporary twist.
Running throughout May
