Habitat is an exploration of personal territory using the birds nest as a metaphor to examine the process of construction, shelter and space. Each nest is a combination of strength and fragility, its individual characteristics beautifully rendered in paint or charcoal. Wrest-Smith varies her technique to match the personality of the individual nest, those put together with haste are loosely drawn, while those which were meticulously constructed are built up with precise layers of paint as they would have been made with exacting layers of twigs. What began as construction by one being has now become an expression through the process of construction by another. Christine Wrest-Smith won the Masterworks Contemporary Exhibition in 2011, the Savage Club Art Prize in 2010 and was Commended in the Nillumbik Prize in 2010. Habitat is current until Sunday 19 February 2012.
