Paul Maher’s exhibition ＂Window on a City＂ explores the near and far aspects of our world, drawing focus on the familiar and the distant simultaneously. In Maher’s oil paintings and watercolours, the immutable natural world is on display alongside intimate, personal objects and changing man-made interiors. The exhibition considers the window: more than an architectural feature, but a link between the public exterior and private interior. With writing by Chris Tucker and Belle Beasley, this collection features a new body of work exhibited in 2023 at Straitjacket Art Space in Newcastle, NSW.
