Please join us for the opening of Natalie Thomas - Sunset Clause on Saturday 7 October from 3 - 5 pm. Sunset Clause is the first solo exhibition with Darren Knight Gallery by Melbourne based artist Natalie Thomas. Spanning a decades long creative practice, Sunset Clause showcases selected works from her extensive back catalogue alongside recent political posters and paintings. I’m in a dream. In the austere palette of bureaucratic ineptitude I begin, rolling out a field of corporate grey like it’s just business. An overlay grid of whitewash frames the Christian name of each Treasurer since ‘Federation’. The relationship between church, ‘state’ and crime scene continues unabated. A portrait of society as a synthesized, corrupted grid of privilege, power and influence, hanging too comfortably within the genre of the Grand Historical Narrative.
