Dore Stockhausen: echoes of a new eden

8 March - 29 June 2025
Shepparton Art Musuem

In echoes of a new eden, artist Dore Stockhausen presents a series of abstract paintings that reflect on life in a post-natural world. Initially seeming devoid of flora and fauna, closer inspection reveals traces of irrepressible nature emerging through her artificial constructions.

Stockhausen’s paintings confront the reality that our landscapes have been reshaped by human influence; through hard-edged abstractions that combine geometric and organic forms, Stockhausen crafts her own post-natural scenes that prompt us to reconsider our relationship with the environment.
