About The Piece

‘Gerry’ is an acrylic painting by Hayley Stewart first exhibited in 2023 for her solo exhibition at Revelstoke’s Public Art Gallery at the Visual Arts Centre. This piece marks a departure from Hayley Stewart’s familiar alpine landscapes, inviting viewers into a lush world of tropical foliage and ocean creatures. Created using a dynamic combination of acrylic and spray paint on canvas, the piece dives into the ocean with its bold, simplified forms layered with rich gradients and expressive movement. Hayley’s fluid contours and contemporary approach bring an almost dreamlike quality to the work, offering a vibrant exploration of nature’s rhythm, texture, and quiet power.
