Robert Bowers Australia

Robert Bowers works are visual conduits that transports you to warmer climes and dappled morning strolls of contemporary suburban life. Having honed a duality of colour and texture that is both hazily sun-faded yet crisp and clear, Bowers' work evokes a sanguine sensation: you are both immediately on a foreign holiday yet catapulted back to the street you grew up on. Flush with mellow warmth, this narrative between familiar suburban inclines and adventitious verandah views allows us to temporarily exist in a state of balmy flow. Viewed as a whole, Bowers' works are a warm morning trickled into a mild evening, with precious details of luminous watering cans, creamy concrete porches and delicately limned leaves. Fixated on the allure of sampling the neighbourhood, Bower's offers us a rare glimpse into a world of private emotion, made richer for its seclusion.
