The Horizon Paintings came about after an extended trip overseas, and being inspired by the difference in light and tonality of the colour palettes present in the landscapes and skyscapes Patté experienced during this time. Heralding a coalescence of the circular motif and the visual abstraction of a photograph into an anthology of colour; each painting takes its inspiration from a slice of a photographic image. Spanning Europe and Australasia, these works encourage us to take notice of the everyday and how seasons, location, time of day and climate help to determine our experience of the natural environment.
