How do you paint memory? Have you ever looked at a portrait and wondered why additional objects have been included? Have you ever wondered about the objects painted in a Still Life painting? These things may tell you a little more about the person in the portrait or the painter of a Still Life setting.
Well, the Port Lincoln Art Group decided to make Still Life paintings that tell a story about the owner of the objects. The owner maybe an art group member, they could be a friend or a family member. Why do these items mean a lot to them, do they suggest what they love, what they collect or what they are interested in?
Art group members will present an exhibition of Still Life paintings that capture memory. Visitors will also have the opportunity to hear details of the “Still Life stories” by clicking on a QR code.
