A joint project

Working with the artist Theo to install our paintings in the Parry gallery space was exciting!

We spent a while laying out the best possible location for each painting, considered the final placement after coffee and made a few changes. Once hung, we adjusted lighting and secured the wall labels before a huge sigh of satisfaction.

Incredibly pleased with the exhibition. Thank you to our wonderful friends and family for your support ❤️

Littoral exhibition

Nat works in oil on canvas and linen and uses masking tape to cover both vertical and horizontal areas between layers of paint, revealing the previous layer when removed.

Theo uses acrylic on canvas and canvas paper and constructs the landscape with defined horizons while playing with the vertical structure of water lines within the compositions.

Paintings of the nearshore

Littoral is a joint exhibition by Albany artists Nat Rad and Theo, marking the first time they have presented their work together after participating in numerous group exhibitions. The inspiration for this collaboration arose from independent creative research, which revealed a shared interest in the concept of the ‘nearshore.’ Through their individual artistic practices, both artists ventured out to document the area surrounding Menang Koort (King George Sound) on the Albany coast, focusing on the unique shapes, colors, and movements found within these landscapes.

New work!

Working towards an exhibition- Nov 2025

Moving focus to paint, I am working on a body of work with Theo for the Parry Gallery exhibition at the Historic Whaling Station. About halfway through production now!
