Amanda's description of this exhibition is as follows.
Looking from Behind……(& other things)
In this exhibition my aim is to evoke feelings of nostalgia, curiosity and introspection. By positioning ourselves behind the scenes, we gain a deeper appreciation of the complexities of human experience and the relationships that define us.
It also invites the viewer to explore hidden narratives and untold stories that lie just out of sight. In modern society, so much of our time is spent engaging with technology, we often overlook moments of intimacy. These paintings are a look into the past, moments captured in time that shape our memory and connections. My hope is that as you peer into these images, you are able to reflect on the memories you cherish.
Exhibition dates: 12 December 2024 - 19th February 2025
