Artist and Curator's Tour and Tea: Emma Talbot: How We Learn To Love
A large, vibrant mural covering the walls of an indoor space. The mural features a highly detailed, fantastical landscape with numerous surreal, symbolic elements. Swirling patterns, celestial imagery, and imaginary creatures create a sense of dreamlike, otherworldly atmosphere. A central, larger-than-life female figure with long, flowing pink hair appears to be the focal point of the composition.

A large, colourful fabric sculpture or installation piece displayed in an ornate interior space. The sculpture features swirling, abstract patterns and shapes in vibrant hues of yellow, purple, and orange. It seems to be suspended from the ceiling and takes up a significant portion of the room. The background includes architectural elements like decorative columns and a chandelier, giving the impression of an elaborate, grand setting.
