Glory - The Full Manifestation, an exhibition by Pam Finlay
By portraying fragments of the flower the artist is choosing to capture a glimpse of the complete picture and consequently encourage the viewer to contemplate.
“A garden is a celebration of nature’s beauty. Through my artworks I aim to revisit the garden and its flowers captured from a microscopic perspective. Through these works I am also interpreting the majesty of a flower and it unfading beauty, the resilience and tenacity of a flower, how it forms and metamorphoses. Flowers exude energy and vitality and their colours and graceful form are intriguing. The flower is the glory of a plant, the full manifestation”.
Pam’s exhibition is a collection of acrylic paintings.
Meet the Artist, Pam Finlay: Friday, April 5 at 11.00am in the Lagoon’s Gallery.
