Type: Signed Limited Edition Artwork

The Water Ballet

What happens when you look at a reflection from an unexpected angle? In The Water Ballet, golden shapes become dancers, wavering lines suggest a stage, and nature performs a marvellous little illusion. A new limited-edition artwork by Ralph Kerle. The curtain rises on Act One.

Type:

City of Light

A fleeting moment on Sydney’s Middle Harbour became an imagined city of colour, movement and light. Created from the interaction of sunlight, wind, water and reflection, City of Light explores an emerging idea in my work: Nature’s Technology—the hidden processes through which nature creates extraordinary visual experiences.

Type:

Impressions of a Turner Landscape 9

A luminous new LandEscape in which light, water and reflection create the illusion of a landscape that might have emerged from the world of J. M. W. Turner.

Type:

Treecolour

A hidden Middle Harbour landscape becomes a natural temple of green, turquoise and reflected light—its tranquillity carrying the memory of an industrial past.

Type:

Nature’s Infrastructure

Nature’s Infrastructure reveals a hidden world of resonant blue, forest green and flowing gold. Roads, coastlines and mysterious floating forms seem to emerge across the water, creating an imagined network of movement, landscape and passage beneath the abstraction.

Type:

Kandinsky's Follies

For some time, I couldn't find the right title. I saw dancing figures in the reflection and found myself thinking about the great theatrical follies and the choreography of Busby Berkeley, where individual figures become part of a larger, constantly moving pattern. Then I encountered Wassily Kandinsky's Improvisations.

How to Choose Large-Scale Wall Art for a Room You'll Never Stop Looking At

Most large-scale wall art guides talk about sofa widths and colour palettes. This one is about finding the single piece a room is built around: sized right, ready to specify, and carrying a story worth telling.

The Water Ballet: When Nature Becomes the Magician

What if nature were a magician and water her stage? A simple change of viewpoint revealed a company of golden performers dancing above a field of blue. In The Water Ballet, I explore the pleasure of seeing beyond the familiar — without giving away the trick.

City of Light: When Nature Builds a Metropolis

On Sydney's Middle Harbour, sunlight, wind, water and the silver hull of a vessel momentarily created something unexpected: an imaginary city. City of Light introduces a new idea emerging in my work—Nature's Technology.
