A Land Of Plenty With Sarah Abbott At The Eden Reserve

there really is no greater way to exhibit or appreciate the scale and proportion of a piece of art than when it�s hung on a wall in familiar surrounds.

A Land Of Plenty is an immersive art experience by Australian still-life artist Sarah Abbott, hosted by The Eden Reserve in Brigadoon, WA.

THE ART.

With a dozen or so pieces on display strategically adorning the walls of The Eden Reserve, Sarah Abbott will be creating an experience I am very familiar with.

Having hosted my own an at-home in-situ event a few years ago alongside another prominent Perth artist, there really is no greater way to exhibit or appreciate the scale and proportion of a piece of art than when it�s hung on a wall in familiar surrounds.

?The theme of the home and domesticity is strong. I feel this is sometimes a criticism levelled towards a certain type of art, but for me it�s an honest reflection of my day to day life, and my interests.? � Perth artist, Sarah Abbott

This is one of those special, left-of-center type Perth events that are designed to give you a little �me time� alongside your yearning to get back out into the local world.

Imagine spending your Saturday meandering around the retreat, whilst perusing new artworks (available in a variety of sizes and price points) whilst nibbling on local cheeses & produce with a cheeky gin in hand; sounds a bit delightful doesn�t it? So when I say what�s on Perth what I actually mean is can someone pass the serenity? This is not your garden variety art exhibition.

THE EDEN RESERVE.

The Eden Reserve is one of Swan Valley�s newest luxury accommodation retreats. Nestled in the quiet hills of Brigadoon surrounded by nature and boasting a vantage view of Perth Hills, the retreat is a perfect setting to appreciate this series of newly created paintings by Abbott.

LOCAL NOURISHMENT.

Feast on a bountiful visual treat illustrating stunning local produce from fruit, vegetable, cheese, honey and wine, reflecting the rich natural provenance of the Swan Valley and Perth Hills locale.

I mean, it would be rude not to.

Visitors will be offered a sampling of award-winning gins [I love discovering new local makers] by Swan Valley distillery Old Young�s, crafted using local produce and native Australian botanicals.

You will also get to enjoy your choice from two delicious cocktails made by Elixr Cocktails, Western Australia�s first premium pre-batched cocktail company. Inspired by the excellent produce of the Swan Valley, select from Wildflowertini, a tasteful blend of Old Young�s Vodka, 1829 Gin, elderflower liqueur and rose water; or Hey Honey, I�m Old Fashioned, an absolute classic whisky-based cocktail from the late 1800s given a local touch by using a dollop of House of Honey�s Parrot Bush blend instead of sugar.
