Description: Margaret River Gallery Exhibition ESTATE 2 –21 March 2013 exhibition opens Saturday 02 March 6-8 pm New works by Lauren Wilhelm Lauren Wilhelm is a Western Australian artist who has exhibited nationally, in New York and whose recent solo shows have been sold-out. Inspired by history and man's seeming inability to learn from it, Lauren's paintings offer a quirky look at hubris whilst still managing to evoke a stillness and sweet melancholia. Her latest work is inspired by the idea of land ownership and territory. Dismayed by urban sprawl and large tracts of bushland she remembered as a child being carved up into soulless expanses of identical rooftops, Lauren explores our preoccupation with owning a slice of earth. Dates: Saturday 02 March 2013 to Thursday 21 March 2013. Opening Times: open daily 10 am to 5pm. For more information, contact: margaret river gallery.
