Studio Sale | Perdita Sinclair 2024

Perdita Sinclair’s work is like stepping into a dreamscape of colour and emotion, where each piece tells a story from the intersection of imagination and reality.

The ice-cream-like forms and colourful buoys are a metaphor for shifting states of existence, hidden systems in the world and a manifestation of individual and collective thoughts and feelings bobbing along as a symbiotic collective.
