Causey Contemporary is pleased to announce Day For Night, the latest series of paintings by Shelton Walsmith.
The exhibition Day for Night features three distinct new series of paintings by artist, Sheldon Walsmith. The series, La Perambulati, Ill Corallo and The New Phonetic each play with polarity. Sheldon feels it is the artist’s task is to extend the expanse between black and white; between opposing forces. The paintings in Day For Night represents thispractice; like a waking dream these paintings are the fractaling seconds between dawn and dusk, fact and fantasy, experiencing and remembering.
