About the exhibition
The Mill is excited to present A Resting State, a new exhibition curated by resident artist Hamish Fleming, featuring work by Hamish Fleming, George Gilles, Anthea Jones, Robert Viner Jones and Billy Oakley. In A Resting State artists have used the medium of painting as a device to create mood and atmosphere within everyday environments. Self-taught artist and now emerging curator, Hamish, has worked closely with the artists to develop an exhibition environment that is rich with feeling through the use of lighting, texture and colour.

H. Fleming is a contemporary realist painter currently based in Adelaide (Kaurna Country), South Australia. Fleming is a self-taught artist, working closely both with and against the long-standing traditions of realism. He works solely from life, without the use of any reference photos, to convey the subtler elements of the human experience through frequently mundane subject matter. Fleming’s practice draws upon many influences, ranging from the classical masters and post-modernism, to gothic and dirty realism literature. In 2023 Hamish has been a finalist in the Bluethumb Art Prize, Centre for Creative Health Art Prize, and Smallacombe Prize, and winner of the Young Artist Category, Adelaide Parklands Art Prize.
