Williams reinterprets the art of portraiture and still-lifes by blending subjects real, imaginary, and from memory in a vibrant series of paintings. Hues of jade, lilac, indigo, and ochre, permeate these works, bringing to life details pulled from the artist’s upbringing in Melbourne, ancestral connections to Egypt, and the lasting impact of the American Southwest landscape. A “collage of recollections and fantasies” informs these snapshots of people and places captured on canvas in the midst of life unfolding.
