What's on at the MGA
Renato Grome: Seduce
Held from 23 August to 30 September.
Renato Grome's works are striking in their simplicity and saturated colour, depicting sexualized flora - orchids, cacti and other flowers in his signature bold style.
Renato Grome's artwork is intriguingly technically hand crafted traditional photography - in reversal - and not digitally manipulated. His process has evolved from many years of working with natural light and light absorption techniques.
