Gallery owner Nathan Smith talked about Dylan Mooney’s latest exhibiton Intertwined at the N.Smith Gallery 6 Napier St, Paddington NSW 2021

Dylan Mooney’s works speak of resilience, resistance, and connection. 

Intertwined investigates our relationship with native flora and by extension, Australian culture. Rather than focussing on cuttings and arrangements in the still life genre, Mooney’s digital illustrations observe living plants as a way of highlighting the continuation of Indigenous culture, resistance to introduced species, and connection to Country — redefining the still life genre by celebrating resilience.

Intertwined presents new work combining Dylan's digital illustrations with hand-embellished gold leaf and ochre sourced from Yuwi Country.
