Event details
Experience the serene beauty of Boroondara's resting places through the eyes of the Elgin Artists. ‘Resting Places in Boroondara’ invites you on a journey inspired by the simple act of taking a break.
As seasoned walkers exploring the streets of Hawthorn where their studio resides, the Elgin Artists discovered the profound significance of public seating – a pause for reflection, a moment of respite. Delve into a world where everyday benches become the focal point of inspiration. From the tranquil settings of parks and gardens to the bustling streets, each seat tells a unique story waiting to be captured on canvas.
Through vibrant paintings, audiences are invited to pause, contemplate, and appreciate the quiet moments scattered throughout Boroondara. ‘Resting Places in Boroondara’ is a testament to the artistry found in the everyday, beckoning viewers to see the world anew.
