Walter Price Pearl Lines
Focusing on the location of Osborne St, a former bathhouse, Price mirrors his 2018 show by engulfing the gallery interior in a deep ultramarine blue. Price’s attention to the colour blue is echoed in the new works, where a range of blue tones dominate the canvas, ranging from tactile abstract seascapes to landscapes layered within the figurative works that are parallel to Price’s drawings.
Price's work is about these collective themes and the aesthetic and history of painting, an act of converting experiences into colour and line with a tangible medium.
