Join artist Kerry Shepherdson for a floor talk that looks at the everyday objects we collect and live with, and the memories and experiences they carry. Through her still life paintings, Shepherdson slows things down, focusing on familiar spaces and the quiet details often overlooked in daily life. Her work plays with colour, pattern, and texture, using fluid paint and expressive brushwork rather than light and shadow. Influenced by her formative training in Chinese Brush painting and her years living overseas, Shepherdson’s practice invites audiences to pause, reflect, and see the beauty and meaning in ordinary things.

M16 Artspace operates on the lands of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people. We honour and pay our respects to the traditional custodians. Sovereignty was never ceded.
