Nancy Sever Gallery presents the book launch and exhibition of Familiar Fragments: paintings by Annie Franklin and poems by Anita Patel. This beautiful hardback book is an offering of everyday objects, moments and experiences which make up ordinary lives—from custard jugs, recipes, and picnics to the sadness of watching aged parents decline and die.
Annie Franklin and Anita Patel share poignant, joyful and quirky fragments from conversations they have had over many years. They have talked about rivers, gardens, teacups, kitchens, childhoods, friendship and everything in between.
You will have the chance to meet the illustrator and writer, browse through the book and enjoy an exhibition of luminous art. Signed copies of the book will be available at a special launch price of $35. Paintings by Annie Franklin featured in the book will also be for sale on the day.
