M+B is pleased to present Losing sight of shore, a group exhibition featuring works by Matthew Brandt, Bill Jacklin, Erna Mist, Leo Mock, JP Munro, Matthew Porter and Samuel Staffan. The exhibition is currently open and will run through April 13, 2024.
Landscape paintings, with their sweeping vistas and intricate details, extend far beyond mere depictions of nature's beauty. These works of art embody a dual essence, serving not only as windows to the tangible world but also as mirrors reflecting the intangible landscapes of the human psyche. Each stroke and hue carries the potential to capture not just a scene but a state of being, transforming the canvas into a realm where external realities and internal experiences converge. In this way, landscape paintings become metaphorical journeys, inviting the viewer to traverse beyond physical spaces into the realms of emotion, thought, and introspection, thereby revealing the profound interconnectedness between the environment and the emotional human condition.
