This will be an opportunity to hear a discussion between Spirovski and McDonald, celebrating the opening of Lux Aeterna.

"If these figures are born from algorithms, their ultimate realisation belongs to the hand. Through touch, intuition and the materiality of paint, it is an artistic wrestle—reaffirming, perhaps, something profoundly human: that even in an age increasingly shaped by machines, painting remains an expression of memory, imagination and our eternal desire to give form to dreams." - Loribelle Spirovski

In Lux Aeterna, Spirovski's intervention begins where the machine ends. Through the material labour of fingerpainting, these synthetic images acquire weight, atmosphere and emotional complexity. Each portrait refuses the speed and frictionless certainty of digital image-making, insisting instead upon slowness and touch. Every surface records negotiation rather than calculation.

 

Together, they will discuss the inspiration behind the exhibition, Spirovski's evolving painting practice, and the intersection of art, memory and machine-generation that informs this new body of work.
