Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily
Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily
1st December – 17th December 2023
Pentridge Arts warmly invites you to their forthcoming exhibition, ‘Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily’ by Lana Dauberman and Simon Leah.
Opening Friday 1st December, it will continue until the 17th December 2023.
Exhibition Statement
With adjacent studios between the walls of Pentridge, these two resident artists not only share a common appreciation for Friday afternoon beers but feel a deep connection to the natural beauty in their surrounding neighbourhood.
Simon Leah’s luscious and organic sculptural pieces made from raw materials like copper, brass and bronze, exude creativity in both form and function. They sit comfortably within a gallery context, but equally well within a considered interior. His meticulous eye and incredible commitment to detail offer an exciting counterpoint to the more spontaneous plein air works created by Lana Daubermann. Luscious in their own way, Lana’s oil paintings are all painted on site by the Merri Creek, between her home and studio.
Life really is ‘but a dream’ for these two artists as they share a mutual admiration for the other’s work, with inspiration that flows freely between the wall of their shared space.
