This is Justin Lee Williams’ exceptional new show “Night Mountain I Miss You” at Mild Manners in Brisbane, Australia. Justin’s work is breathtaking both in terms of craft and storytelling. It would be amazing to see these watercolors in person.

“Justin spent the last few years living and working in a remote part of the Dandenong Ranges north of Melbourne. From his new studio windows in a space far closer to the city, he finds himself longing for what was, the dark lines of the hills he remembers so fondly and the plants, animals and characters that give it identity. This series is a celebratory exploration of loss and memory, reflecting on times past in the mountains, its people, local folk laws and myths.” – Mild Manners

Justin Lee Williams’ subjects seem caught somewhere between life and death – we see the outward signs: a flash of their spirit, the grotesque deterioration of their body. His work is so beautiful it might take you a minute to realize you’re staring death in the face.
