Studio Visit and Interview with Nerrida Parfitt

In August, I had the privilege of visiting Nerrida Parfitt at her lovely home in Ballarat to preview the new pieces for her solo exhibition, Pause. Nerrida’s studio is a sun-drenched room perched on the top floor of her house. The bright and airy space, filled with natural light, is a stark contrast to the moody, introspective, and at times mysterious nocturnal scenes she masterfully brings to life on canvas. Each work reflects her unique ability to transport viewers into a world of quiet wonder and suspense.

Pause is an absolutely stunning exhibition by Nerrida Parfitt and is open to the public from November 6th through 16th.

Q & A with Raphe Coombes

Raphe Coombes has been part of The Corner Store Gallery family since 2019 when he first submitted a work to our Landscapes Group Exhibition. I fell in love instantly and selfishly acquired the painting for myself, I just had to have it! Since then Raphe’s work has blossomed and developed while maintaining his signature, tactile style. The oil paint is so thick and buttery, you could eat it. Instantly recognisable by his symbolic gestures and repeated patterns and marks. Neon yellow dots of thick oil paint and swirly graphite lines create a unique language that represent the natural environment.

Live, Love, Paint is Raphe’s most recent body of work created at time of great change in his life, having recently become a father.

Live, Love, Paint is on display at The Corner Store Gallery from October 19th to 29th with pre-sales launching online at 8pm October 18th. Join us to celebrate the launch of the exhibition on Saturday November 22nd from 3pm.
