Amazing art at right now!
👻 I loved the installation Face Everything in the modernist house gallery space - so many hidden surprises and lots of fun site specific and spooky elements. I hadn’t planned anything for Halloween but this turned out to be perfect.
😍 Maria Kontis’s pastel drawings on velvet paper were incredible.
📸 I’d originally gone to see the Man Ray and Max Dupain photography exhibition, but I loved seeing Olive Cotton’s work too.
🌿 And the gardens are always beautiful to explore on a sunny day.
