The Atmospherics of Light

A stunning exhibition by British artist, Gareth Edwards RWA of evocative abstract landscapes, bringing St.Ives, UK to Noosa, Australia.

Following a successful premiere Australian exhibition in 2023, we are delighted to showcase British artist, Gareth Edwards RWA second solo show, The Atmospherics of Light.
We have personally known Gareth and his work for nearly 30 years and have followed his art career closely. To finally hang a solo show of such quality and beauty in our space is a privilege that we are excited to share with you.

Gareth paints out of the famous Porthmeor Studios in St Ives, Cornwall UK, which have been the creative spaces for many famous artists throughout history. We are excited to share that Gareth will be making the journey from the UK to join us in person for the opening evening here in Noosa!

The Atmospherics of Light
“The Atmospherics of Light is a show of paintings each of which reflects a singular mood; moments of feeling and emotion that are half remembered and partly imagined, made to manifest in these paintings by evoking specific light effects.
As in a theatre where light creates a mood within which the drama unfolds, these paintings also reveal their own quiet dramas, laments and yearnings that are alloyed into the layers of painted light evoking different atmospheres and moods a kind of emotional weather that we begin to recognise as we lay down our own layers of experience year in and year out.
Each of us can rest with these paintings joining in with their atmospheres that are both within us and without us, past moments and present tenses.”
