Gathering is pleased to present William Mackinnon’s solo show, Half the perfect world, opening 13 September at Gathering Ibiza. With ten works of emotionally captivating landscapes and roadscapes, the show explores themes of home and belonging while blurring the boundaries between external reality and internal experience.

William Mackinnon is collecting clues. When driving around the island of Ibiza, the artist will have moments of realisation relative to the subjects of his paintings: a dry docked boat, the façade of a house or certain road signs. He compares himself to the bowerbird –native to Mackinnon’s home country of Australia –for the way the artist obsessively collects and assembles objects that he picks up from his surroundings into his paintings, oftentimes subconsciously.
