Artist Statement:
“The exhibition ‘Light Amongst Shadows’ has emerged out of a period of painterly and formal experimentation, in subjects drawn from both the anecdotal close at hand and underfoot, as well as a more expansive arena of the estuarine landscape. My primary intent is locating the overall image through a painterly field of layering colour.
A glimpse of my travels.”

Harvey Galleries was founded by the Harvey family in 1994 with an eye to establish a dynamic and inclusive contemporary art space on the North Shore of Sydney. For almost three decades we have expanded our reach to over three gallery locations and an ever expanding stable of the best artists Australia has to offer.
Harvey Galleries acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which our galleries stand. The Guringai people (Seaforth), the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation (Sydney), and the Bunurong Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nation (Melbourne).
We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
