‘Reverie’ evokes the state of daydreaming, of being adrift between dreams and wakefulness.
In Thea Anamara Perkins' new exhibition, the artist draws on archival images of her family, treating the photograph as a threshold rather than a fixed record. The exhibition ties to 'the glimmer', a central motif in her practice: brief, luminous flashes of feeling that surface before the story can. It gently centres figures in repose and in moments of peace. Reflecting, imagining, dreaming.
Perkins invites us to consider how we inherit images, and how the past returns, altered, and alive. As well as the agency of memory, emotion and love within the process of reflection.
