Bathed in a luminous haze, ‘Sunsetter’ captures the majesty of shifting light across land and sea. Veils of rose, amber, and soft gold dissolve into layered silhouettes of distant hills, their forms both grounded and ethereal. The work radiates a meditative stillness, inviting the viewer into a landscape that feels timeless, suspended between day’s end and night’s beginning.
Artist Bio
Contemporary painter Greer Clayton extracts the essence of New Zealand’s natural environment through large-scale immersive landscapes.
Drawing on retrospection and evocation, and conceptualised through the act of painting, Clayton’s atmospheric compositions present an abstracted impression of her chosen scene rather than a direct topographical representation. The resulting paintings exude a subliminal connectivity with the land itself, offering themselves as instruments with which to view beyond what the naked eye has previously submitted as fact when experiencing these familiar places ourselves. Moody, timeless, and ethereal, the paintings encourage introspection and a sense of halcyon solitude.
