David Collins’ work offers a contemplative engagement with landscape, drawing attention to its subtle textures, patterns and rhythms. Through a fluid and expressive painterly language, the works remain open between observation and abstraction, memory and immediate experience.

In celebrating the mangroves of the lower Hawkesbury, Collins presents more than a series of landscape paintings. These works are an invitation to look closely and consider the intricate relationships that sustain these vital living communities.
