Maria Cruz / Preview Thursday 14 February, 6-8pm


Kaliman Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings by Maria Cruz.

Cruz’s referential combination of words, collage and colour culminate in emotive and often witty outcomes. She sources her text from billboards, personality tests, advertising materials from the Philippines and Yoko Ono’s song titles. These textual fragments occupy spaces that suggest natural forms such as lakes, rock formations, waterfalls, foliage and the sky. Cruz has often cited the influence of the Romantic period and in this most recent body of work notions of the sublime, the abyss and other transcendental representations of nature are clearly visible.

Del Kathryn Barton & Romance was Born at Kaliman Gallery





Last week Kaliman Gallery hosted the Garden of Eden, a one night only runway fashion event showcasing a collection of unique garments by fashion label Romance was Born and new works by artist Del Kathryn Barton.

Barton's paintings are a direct source of inspiration for the distinctive fabric designs created by Romance was Born. The Garden of Eden was a unique celebration of their ongoing collaborations. The function was followed by a two-day exhibition featuring the art work and garments from the runway show.
