Palimpsest
Palimpsest presents a body of work shaped by a life lived between Bermuda and Australia. Through layered imagery and painterly gestures, this exhibition explores impermanence, displacement, and the evolving idea of home. Walters offers a contemporary perspective on Bermuda’s landscape, filtered through distance, memory, and dual belonging.
Metamorphosis
Metamorphosis marks a sea change in Meg Walters’ lyrical engagement with place and personhood. She has long traced the geographies of the mind in those of the earth, recognising in the natural world a metaphor for memory. Rhythms of flux, of formation and dissolution, the slow accumulation of sediment, its precipitous erosion – these shape in equal measure inner and outer landscapes. Such reflections now find a more personal register in remembered places made dreamlike by distance.
Space Between Dreams
With an interest in the metaphysical and the sublime, my paintings aim to explore what is beyond this physical world. Serving as a visual meditation on loss, longing and the inter-connectedness of the human condition, each painting reflects on my own experiences, observations and memories. My dreamscapes merge real and imagined environments, blending them to form an alternate reality.
Sun.BEATS.Still
The way place embeds itself into identity is of interest to me. We carry some places with us forever and they become infused into our very core. Some landscapes take up more room within us, and Arrernte Country was one of those places for me. My exhibition, SUN.beats.STILL is a collection of memories from my time spent in the Northern Territory, hiking and camping along the MacDonnell Ranges (Tjoritja).

Life is Not Symmetrical
Drawn time and time again to the motif of moving water in her paintings, her latest exhibition; Life is Not Symmetrical aims to open up a discussion on change and impermanence. Hailed as a symbol of transience, the waterfall represents elements of opposites, mystery, rebirth and transformation.
