Fascinating Exhibition in Auckland
“Deeply contemplative paintings” – that’s how Chris Verryt’s art is often described. Some of these fascinating landscapes appear to be mystical. The viewers are invited to think about their own journeys.
I find it most effective when first looking at the paintings from the distance and then slowly approaching them and discovering more and more details. However, I could also imagine first looking at the details and then distancing oneself slowly.
Which ever way you choose, the paintings are different from close up and from the distance. So, in order to really capture the painting, you need to look at it from different perspectives – just like one’s life’s journey.
The exhibition is open until 5 January 2025. Location: Satellite 2, 61a Victoria Road, Devonport. Auckland
