Frank Lloyd Wright said "study nature, love nature, stay close to nature." It will never fail you. Artist, Kevina-Jo Smith, literally weaves discovery, nostalgia and escapism into fabric sculptures that represent Australian flora. Conservation and sustainability are the key focus in this exhibition. The materials used are natural or recycled and scraps are never thrown away, nothing is ever labelled as useless. STAY CLOSE begs us to protect our plants, and protect we will. – HM
