Opens this week! Lori Pensini explores the symbolic and ecological qualities of iconic Australian flora, particularly species native to the southwest forests and bushlands of Western Australia, such as banksia, wattle, and everlasting. In this body of work, flowers are not merely decorative elements but are observed in their natural habitats and carefully integrated with the human figure. This approach creates a visual and emotional metaphor that speaks to the depths of human experience - inner strength, vulnerability, and resilience.
