Opening: 4 - 6pm 30 July. Afternoon tea and conversation: 2 – 4pm Sun 7 August and Sat 13 August.

The abstract paintings that make up Call to Mind are the result of Julia Scott’s ongoing curiosity about ideas and images drawn from physics, mathematics and psychology. Ideas she finds enticingly complex, subtle and paradoxical.

Through the painting process, they become a contemplation and layered interaction of scientific ideas and imagination – a quest for a missing piece which remains just out of reach. Underpinning her process is a collective human understanding and shared ‘reality’ that enables dialogue and consideration of apparently disparate conceptions.

Her paintings do not depict concepts literally, but draw on and combine an external research-based and analytical approach with an internal mysterious, unconscious and more spiritual world.
