KEZ HUGHES
You Never Got Me Right
In an age where digital images dominate our experience, Kez Hughes’ paintings are lovingly rendered to communicate stillness, and beauty, and provide a new recording of artworks lost to their respective histories and locations.
Through repositioning and recreating paintings from existing documentary images of art, Hughes contemplates ideas of originality, authenticity, and authorship.
You never got me right brings together painted adaptations of works by Australian Artists including Lucina Lane, Heather b Swann, Olah Cohn, and Nat Ryan amongst others.
