NESTING

MARINA KLOSE

Oil on Canvas

Melbourne, 2024

Location: Onsite

"Nesting" is a breathtaking representation of the Australian bush, capturing the essence of towering eucalypts bathed in soft, dappled light. Using expressive brushstrokes and a rich yet ethereal colour palette, Klose conveys the movement and life within the forest, where trees appear to sway gently in the breeze.

Hints of green foliage emerge from the tall trunks, their soft forms blending seamlessly into the sky, while delicate birds hover near the canopy, bringing a sense of warmth and serenity. The painting’s blurred, almost dreamlike quality evokes the feeling of walking through the bush, where light and shadow dance across the landscape.

Through "Nesting", Klose invites the viewer to experience the beauty and tranquillity of nature, highlighting the deep connection between the land, its wildlife, and the ever-changing rhythms of the environment.
