Artist in attendance
In her second solo exhibition with Madrona Gallery, April Ponsford brings together a collection of thirteen new paintings. Ponsford uses colour, brushwork, and texture to create hidden in-between spaces that evoke fleeting moments in time. These spaces express hidden narratives that gradually reveal themselves to the viewer over time.
