sydney harbour : an undercoat
Sheehy’s paintings reference Sydney harbour’s enduring undercoat; the industry-based architectural forms of its foreshore and its broader (and literal) base coat. His works are the meeting point of structural abstraction and delicate figuration, and present a new topoanalysis of the harbour as a site of material and spatial underneaths.
