Rothko, Residency, Russia
Surely, I must be the only artist in Australia who has been offered a 3-month residency/exhibition on the Russian border since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. It is in the Mark Rothko Arts Centre, Daugavpils, Latvia (formerly Dvinsk, USSR) and the birthplace of Mark Rothko. I was originally offered this residency in 2020 after his daughter, Kate Rothko, Chair, the Rothko Foundation, had seen my work in 2018 whilst being exhibited in Riga.

My Favourite Artwork - the Flight into Blue

Nature Abstracts
Orange Water Geometry, “An amazing image. The vivid colours, broken likes, strong ripples and depth of field are all elements I adore in this piece. The colour-blocked colours create a strong central composition, paired with leading lines on the waters surface. This shot is a masterpiece..”
The Australian Weekend Magazine features Ralph Kerle
Delighted to have been featured in the Heart of the Nation section of the Australian Weekend Magazine. I am cautious with journalists. However, Ross Billton, Deputy Editor, the Australian Weekend Magazine, synthesized our 50 minute interview in way whereby when I read it, I felt not a single ounce of tension in his writing. Thanks, Roos
Towards Stillness
The all encompassing environment of nature moves one towards stillness and inner peace. I have deliberately obscured the location as I wanted the film to create a sense of the universality of nature. This scene could be anywhere. I used no edits. I just allowed each clip to flow into the next to create a sense of the atmosphere on the journey.
