Collection: 'Quiet and Still' | Mirra Whale

3 - 28 September 2024

Archibald Prize finalist Mirra Whale returns to Mitchell Fine Art with her third solo show exhibition of still life paintings from 3rd September. The works in the show were inspired and created during an artist’s residency at Tweed Regional Gallery.

Mirra Whale is a Sydney based artist whose artworks explore the formal and conceptual limits of the genre of still life. Within her practice Mirra utlises everyday household objects and presents them from another angle.

Mirra’s latest exhibition pays homage to the quiet beauty found in the act of still life painting and the everchanging relationship between shape, colour and form.

“There is a quiet beauty that is entangled within the act of ‘still life ‘painting. Meticulously scanning the many perfections and imperfections that make each object unique and beautiful”, says Whale.
