'Glimpses of Canberra in Paint and Poetry'
To be held at the Strathnairn Homestead Galleries, 90 Stockdill Drive, Holt, ACT, from March 15, 2023 to April 9, 2023.
Glimpses of Canberra in Paint and Poetry is a collaboration between artist Arlene Williams and poet Tony Steven Williams. The visitor is invited to enjoy dialogues between these two expressive art forms. Arlene loves to paint in a variety of mediums and formats. Here, she presents an eclectic and exciting mix of acrylics and watercolours depicting scenes in Canberra and surrounds. Some display well-known icons while others show more intimate conversations. Tony interprets each artwork poetically with either a direct ekphrastic response or a sideways reaction. His poems paint in words, telling stories, moving between thoughtful and fun.
