Trevor Richards: Roll the Tape
About this exhibition
Collie Art Gallery, June 17 – July 30 2023
Roll the Tape surveys works by esteemed Western Australian artist Trevor Richards from the past 20 years.
Fremantle artist Trevor Richards is known for hard-edge abstract paintings and three dimensional wall works that feature bold colour, geometric motifs and sleek surfaces. His work draws on a wide range of historic and contemporary sources, including Islamic and mosaic tile patterning, architectural modelling and tessellations, distilled through a distinctive minimalist aesthetic. Richards also takes his work into the built environment through site specific interventions in galleries and public space, applying pattern and colour to floors, walls, windows and roads.
