Natalie Lavelle: In the Making
In the Making captures the evolving artistic practice of Brisbane-based artist Natalie Lavelle, bringing together early experiments in abstraction and colour field painting with large scale monochromes and new works that expand into spatial installation.
This exhibition distils Lavelle’s interest in the formal language of painting, using colour, form and texture to create a meditative space for the viewer. While laden with art-historical references, Lavelle’s work draws on the powerful immediacy and sensuousness of paint on canvas. Raised in Hervey Bay, this is Natalie Lavelle’s first major exhibition on the Fraser Coast and the first survey of her practice to date.
