Join Wayne Brookes as he shares his infatuation with beautiful things, becoming the master of the ornate and the overlooked. Within each work, Brookes weaves subtle narratives together with rich symbolism, opening up conversations around the opulent, the domestic and the nature of beauty itself. The Allport provides a perfect venue in which to generate a physical encounter between painting and decorative objects – some actual, some contrived – from the Museum’s own splendid collection.
