A Stone/A Kiss I by Robyn Penn
Thoughts from the artist: in this series of paintings of pale icebergs, I am reflecting on physicist Carlo Rovelli's thesis on time and the nature of the world. Rovelli posits that the world is not a collection of things, it is a collection of event. Impermanence and entropy, not stasis, are ubiquitous. Events and processes have a limited duration making the world more like a network of kisses, brief and fleeting, than of stone.
Robyn Penn is a South African born award winning artist based in Auckland. Through a practice that straddles painting, print-making and drawing, Penn explore the relationship between nature and human-kind; experience and knowledge. She is a traditionally trained artist, and the acts of drawing and painting are a way for her to watch and record time passing, to see into the heart of things.
