Milly James: New paintings

Milly James New paintings continues the artist's ongoing investigation into the possibilities and ambiguities of painterly abstraction and its peculiar temporalities.

James’s paintings endeavour to see what is unknown. Through varied gestures the artist renders the point where form becomes image and a finished work reveals the depth of its own process. Auratic in nature, her works are a conduit for intuitive acts and unconscious processes.

Milly James graduated from RMIT University in 2020 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and completed Honours at Monash University (Fine Art) in 2022. New paintings is the artist’s second solo exhibition with the gallery, following Recent paintings in 2023.
