Reflections and Refractions

SAT 21 JUN - FRI 1 AUG 2025

Reflections and Refractions by Lani Burville injects new life into discarded domestic objects through a series of beautifully rendered watercolour paintings. Using the traditional practice of still-life painting, Burville depicts locally sourced second-hand reflective or transparent objects. She brings them into a new context by looking past the intended function of the object and focusing on their unintentional beauty. Reflections and Refractions encourages viewers to notice the chance moments of beauty in everyday life, that are so often overlooked.

Lani Burville (b. 2002) is a visual artist and arts tutor living and working in Central Queensland. She holds a diploma of Graphic Design from Queensland TAFE (2023) and now specialises in watercolour painting. Burville was awarded the Emerging Artist Award at the Martin Hanson Memorial Art Awards (2024) and was a finalist in the Du Rietz Art Awards (2024). She is passionate about sharing her skills with the community by regularly facilitating workshops. Additionally, she has introduced programs which foster creativity in vulnerable sectors of the community.
