Frances Feasey | Good Night Sun
From the 17th of May 2024
This series of paintings depicts Frances Feasey’s love of the local bush sunset. The sunset is historically seen as quintessentially Australian. In 1904 the artist Hans Heysen once said, “We are a people of sunshine and shadow.” With the use of bright colours and expressive brushstrokes these paintings imbue the essence of what makes a sunset so evocative. This is a subject that most viewers can enjoy collectively and relate to from their own memories of memorably sunsets.
