Aptly named to mark the gallery's inaugural exhibition, Maiden Voyage charts the journey from nascent to notable, presenting a considered curation of works by an impressive and diverse collective of artists including Baden Croft, Emma Davies, Matthew Johnson, Grace Murphy, Neil Williams and Elena Zhao.
Unified by their capacity to capture the attention and then coax deeper contemplation of the world around us, a curation of works spanning an array of mediums and expressions demonstrate the inspiring breadth of contemporary art on the Mornington Peninsula and beyond, planting a flag within an ever-shifting topography and establishing kellilundberg.art as a place that mediates between traditional and contemporary practices.
In its depiction of six vastly different individuals - two recent Victorian College of the Arts graduates, three established artists based on the Mornington Peninsula and a globally accomplished recipient of numerous accolades - Maiden Voyage celebrates the inspiring reach of contemporary art, mapping the engaging pilgrimage from emerging to established to be emblematic of the gallery's official launch within the artistic landscape.
