Overview

Rusten House Art Centre presents an exhibition of paintings by Dennis Mortimer and Lia Kemmis.

Lost is a joint exhibition by Mortimer and Kemmis, responding to the impact of human activity on our shared environment. Informed by contemporary data on plastics, pesticides, deforestation, monocultures, and fossil fuel use, each artist offers a distinct perspective on our shared ecological crisis. Both artists work with elements of abstraction, merging forms and patterns through selective colour palettes. Kemmis combines painting with digital photography, while Mortimer works solely with painting.
