'Northern Landscapes' is a new body of work drawn from the artist's experience of living in Denmark for the last five years. The landscape has been a constant source of inspiration in her practice for over twenty-five years and her images are intuitive responses to her surroundings. Kirrily’s works are about capturing universal moments of sublime in the everyday, inspired by the delicate transience of evening light or memories of a place.

‘Magic put into everyday reality’,

'Iberia Antiqua - Still Life Painting' is a new series of still life oil paintings and collages based on a unique collection of 3000-year-old Iberian artefacts from the Museo Municipal de Valdepenas, in Castilla La Mancha, Spain. Drawing from two years in Spain and her 2018 residency at the Museo, the artist depicts artefacts from the collection that captured her heart and her imagination, together with some unusual pieces from the same period, discovered on the artist’s travels in south-east Spain. Each composition quietly unveils a sense of place, a story of endurance and a journey through time.

There is tenderness and intimacy in everything that Maryanne Wick makes
