'CHROMATIC' at Saint Cloche, photo by Maree Turk 2020
“My house is my refuge, an emotional piece of architecture, not a cold piece of convenience.”
– Luis Barragan
Saint Cloche welcomes back Ceramic sculptor Natalie Rosin with ‘Chromatic’ – a play on tones of the chromatic scale relating to colour phenomenon and sensation observed in architecture.
For this body of work, Natalie was inspired by the colourful and surreal anomalies of the built world. Three strong influences for this exhibition include Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill, Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier and Mexican architect Luis Barragan. Each, in their own way has embraced the use of bold colour, poetically offering different hues in a thoughtful, considered way and never as an afterthought. Another design trademark offered by these influences is the repetitive use of – the arch, the stair and openings to let the outdoors, inside – anchoring the architecture to its natural surroundings. Each designer enhances the experience of light, shadow, depth and a sense of place and orientation, offering spaces with mindfully placed apertures that succinctly frame views of the encompassing landscape, that when combined together, convey an acute indication of the passing of time. You cannot be within the architectural spaces created by one of these masters and not have an awareness of the day’s passage on an ever-unfolding march forward.
The exhibition will run from 14th - 25th October 2020.
