Petra Bensted – Eye See By The Sea – art exhibition

MIST GALLERY presents 

Eye See By The Sea – Petra Bensted 

Drinks 2pm to 4pm Sat 16th Dec 

ARTIST STATEMENT: 

Living in the breathtaking area of Kingscliff and its surrounds inspires me every day. The diversity of wildlife and nature on our wild and untamed beaches is truly remarkable. As a natural-born storyteller, I’m driven to share my daily visions through the medium of photography. My style is drawn to the use of natural light, highlighting the definitions of what I see. I hope to awaken the viewer to curves, shapes, contrasts, and textures that our eyes often overlook. Join me on this journey and discover the beauty that surrounds us every day. 

BIO: 

Meet Petra, a photographer who combines her love for travel and creativity to capture unique images. Originally from Germany, Petra migrated to Australia at a young age and has since explored many parts of the world. With a background in International Trade, Petra’s career allowed her to travel extensively, which ignited her passion for photography. 12 years ago, Petra was given her first real camera, and since then, she has focused on using natural light to bring out the curves and contrasts of her subjects. Petra’s genres vary from fine art photography to street photography, and she hopes her images invite you to see things that our eyes often overlook. Follow Petra’s journey to see the world through her lens.

This is an inclusive event.  Wheelchair access.
