SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: The Kube: Bronwyn Kent & Heidi Siller
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition brings together two distinct approaches to interpreting the natural world—Heidi’s detailed bird studies and Bronwyn’s abstract watercolours—through a shared exploration of process\, material\, and scale.\n\n\nExpanding on a previous miniature show\, these works revisit the same themes at a larger scale\, where gesture\, movement\, and detail are given more space to evolve.
