'A Recce', an exhibition by Lilly Kaiser

This exhibition is an insight into an evolving arts practice.

On show is the early stages of a project that depicts imagery drawn from memory, imagination and observation; imagery that is set in the desert and plays with ideas of intimacy.

These works are made in the pursuit of contextualising a story, figuring out the relationship between characters, their surroundings, and the role that painting plays in setting the tone and building a scene.

These works are beginning to establish a language of paint in which the story will be told.

Lilly is a visual artist and arts educator whose practice explores the non-verbal connections between people, place, and environment.

Through colour, texture, and abstraction, she gives form to the subtle relationships that shape our lived experience.

Inspired by tactile environments and the language of materiality, her work investigates the tension between the fluid systems of nature and the rigid structures of contemporary society.

Guided by personal narrative and intuitive processes, Lilly creates works that reflect both internal experience and shared human connection.

Based in Mparntwe / Alice Springs on Arrernte Country, she lectures at Charles Darwin University while maintaining an active studio practice and exhibiting nationally.

All works will be available for viewing whenever The Roastery is open.
