elysium Gallery invites you to the latest of our series of special online artist talks.
Penny Hallas talks about her latest exhibition ‘Sighting’ on display at elysium gallery throughout Feb and March 2026.
In ‘Sighting’, Penny Hallas presents a multi-media exhibition which explores the complex nature of our perception and experience of place. A sighting can be something that simply happens to us, punching through our inattention, dismantling our expectations, or it can be a deliberate act of focusing in.
Collaborative approaches are integral to the artists’ practice: whether from artists, performers, audiences, communities or life/earth scientists, Penny welcomes the enrichment of multiple perspectives and diverse narratives. Sources and theoretical underpinnings come from art historical interrogations of landscape, art psychotherapy/systemic psychotherapy frameworks, archive material, poetry, myth and ritual.
