Thank you to everyone who joined us today for the zoom launch of the International Women’s Day exhibition Go; Rise and Strike! Had an amazing turnout and a wonderful discussion about many of the works in the show.
kerry ferris (1949-2016)
my garden (trumpet vine with humming bird and peregrine falcon), 2011
kerry ferris was a keen observer of nature. While an enthusiastic traveller, she also took pleasure and inspiration in painting scenes close to home. This painting offers a vibrant and energetic view of her garden and the trumpet vine's inter-relationship to the humming bird. The juvenile peregrine falcon which was hanging around her garden during the summer is included in this painting. kerry explored this roundel format in some of her paintings at this time which added to the intensity of the experience in viewing her work.
