Topiary Circus by Brooke Marks-Swanson

Artist list

Brooke Marks-Swanson

She draws her inspiration from topiary art, which involves patience, meticulousness, and close interaction with nature's fluctuations, resulting in an eclectic combination of geometric shapes, not without recalling the chaos in which we are living at the moment. This series of colorful and flamboyant works cleverly combines rigor and frivolity and, by means of a visual reference to circus through shapes and colours, offers a brighter vision of the period we are going through.

Opening:
November 6, 4 pm - 8 pm.
Opening Hours:
Tuesday to Saturday, 11 am - 5 pm.
By appointment only.
