Stillness & Light | Exhibition OpeningJoin soft pastel artists Rachael Hayton and Bernadette Ballantyne for the opening of their joint exhibition, Stillness & Light, at Artspost galleries (Waikato Society of Arts) in Hamilton.
Through soft pastel, Rachael and Bernadette explore moments of light, stillness and connection to place. From expansive landscapes to intimate studies of buildings, reflections and the natural world, the exhibition brings together two distinctive artistic perspectives through a shared appreciation of light, colour and atmosphere.
We'd love you to join us for the official opening, meet the artists and enjoy the artworks in person.
