Orange Regional Gallery is delighted to present Nike Savvas: Purple Haze, a major new exhibition featuring previous works alongside a spectacular new iteration of Savvas' acclaimed Atomic series.

Celebrated for her large-scale, vibrant installations that blend elements of painting, sculpture and kinetic art, Savvas's work invites playful engagement alongside thoughtful contemplation.

Developed in partnership with the Art Gallery of New South Wales and proudly supported by TLE Electrical, the exhibition centres around Atomic: Purple Haze (2026), a vast, exploding, and atomised three-dimensional painted landscape filling an entire gallery.

Also included in the exhibition is Rally (2014), originally commissioned for the Art Gallery of New South Wales' entrance court. In Rally, cascades of colour unfold through suspended strips that echo the flickering energy of Impressionist brushstrokes, extending painting beyond the canvas and into surrounding space.

Through vibrant colour, kinetic energy, and immersive scale, Nike Savvas: Purple Haze transforms Orange Regional Gallery into an unforgettable experience pulsing with memory, movement and connection to landscape.

Nike Savvas is represented by ARC ONE Gallery, Melbourne.
