Vera Moller

Overview

Uniquely fusing biological forms with art, Vera Möller’s latest exhibition is a wonderful collection of painted forms, shimmering backgrounds and sculpture. Fictional biological entities surrounded by dappled hazy fluids, hover in movement creating a hallucinatory and fascinating dream world. Each artwork is also given it’s own scientific name to add to the effect of science meets art.

Vera’s distinctive subject matter connects her with her past studies. Originally from Germany, she studied and worked in the fields of biology and microbiology, which has clearly influenced her immensely. Since moving to Australia she has studied Fine Arts in Melbourne as well as Philosophy. Through her artwork Vera looks at the distinction between the biologist's role, which is to analyse and measure the natural world, and the possibility for the artist to reflect on such research practices and relationships, viewed within the wider cultural context in which these occur.

Combining artistic elements in a surrealist manner, these works will transport you to another world with their detail, fluidity and natural imperceptible energy. Don’t miss this opportunity to see this intelligent and inimitable collection, running until the 14^th of April.
