Atmosphere
Amica Aindow, Andia Cally, Louise Isackson, Rosie Lloyd-Giblett, Anthony Pieters.
‘Atmosphere’ in art may refer to the overall mood, tone, and sensory experience evoked by the artist through the depiction of light, colour, space, composition, shape, texture, movement and other visual elements. Configurations of subject matter such as water, air, soil, land forms, environments, populations and cosmology may also evoke Atmospheric representations.
This exhibition explores a spectrum of interpretations central to the theme of ‘Atmosphere’.
