From the 26th June to the 3rd July 2016,
Northern Rivers based artist Vicki Swift presents
a retrospective exhibition of her work entitled
The opening celebration will take place
at 2pm on Sunday 26th of June 2016.
Everyone is welcome to attend.
Drawing her inspiration from her surroundings,
Vicki Swift’s work is reflective of
the relationship between nature and the self.
Rather than reproducing landscape
in a classically representational way,
she captures the essence and the feeling
of being within the landscape.
From the coast to the hills, Vicki uses
a sophisticated process of deconstruction in her works.
Her restrained palette and the layering of textures
make her paintings vibrate in a tactile way
…offering the viewer
an impressionistic interpretation of landscape.
With an art practice spanning 50 years, Vicki Swift has a passion for both abstract painting and
the environment, and will be generously donating
a percentage from sales of her work to
(The NSW Wildlife Information,
Rescue and Education Service Inc).
Vicki Swift presents WIRES volunteer Marion Nel
with a much appreciated donation.
