Samantha Dennison: 'Of Place'

Jennings Kerr is pleased to present their first solo exhibition with Samantha Dennison. 'Of Place' consists of a new series of realist oil paintings of still life arrangements consisting of hand built ceramic works that are also made by the artist. The paintings will be presented alongside the ceramic works.

Samantha Dennison is an Albany/Kinjarling-based artist working across painting and ceramics to explore themes of stillness, space, and place. Rooted in her lived experience as a regional artist, educator, potter and parent, Dennison's practice is grounded in the quiet resonance of objects as vessels of memory and meaning. Dennison's still life paintings centre on vessels she makes using clays and ashes gathered directly from the landscape, forming unique glazes and surfaces that echo the terrains from which they came.
