Peter Sutherland Builds Meaning From Mess in ‘Cloud Painting'
Summary
ForDries Van Noten's latest show at its Little House Gallery,Peter SutherlandpresentsCloud Paintingwhich is a body of work made between 2024 and 2025. Following a move from New York City to a mountain town in Colorado, his practice expanded from photography to include painting, collage and sculpture. The result is a series of works that explore the space between the natural and the manmade, the polished and the raw.
'I want it to be a chaotic celebration of life,' Sutherland said to Dries Van Noten. His work draws from everyday scenes, graffiti and the cultures that shaped him, like skateboarding and biking. He layers photographs, stickers, sketches and found images with paint rollers, creating compositions that are compacted with unruly elements yet imbued with stillness.
'There's no beginning or end to the process,' he explained in an interview. 'I photograph my life and family in a way that blends everything together.' Relocating during the pandemic gave him space to slow down. 'This work is personal. I wasn't interrupted with city life and just really got to take time and try new things.'
For this show, Sutherland scaled up his collage work, something he has been developing for over a decade. 'The pieces feel like they breathe more.' His work is inspired by artists who reveal themselves through their creations. 'It's like watching a film and slowly learning about a character,' he says. WithCloud Painting, Sutherland invites viewers to do the same and find meaning in the fragments.
The exhibition is on view through June 17. Head toDries Van Noten's websitefor more information.

Sutherland stars in Blast season opener, holders beaten
Melbourne Renegades captain Will Sutherland got his T20 Blast campaign with the bat off to a thunderous start in Leeds, but a superb individual display by David Willey has inspired Northamptonshire to a 13-run victory over former club Yorkshire. The Steelbacks' captain Willey struck 54 and along with Justin Broad's 67 it helped the away side make 4-237 at Headingley on Friday. Both James Wharton and Sutherland smashed 58 for Yorkshire, but Willey's 3-42 made sure his new team fought back to limit the hosts to 9-224. Sutherland almost rescued the contest with six sixes and two fours in his 30-ball knock, which included four maximums in a destructive 12th over, before he was out trying to slog another boundary off fellow Australian Lloyd Pope, the legspinner who claimed 2-37 off his four overs. Elsewhere, Zak Crawley played his part in an explosive Kent batting display which was enough to ensure visiting Gloucestershire started the defence of their crown with a four-run loss. Crawley smashed four sixes in a rapid 37 from 17 balls while Daniel Bell-Drummond top-scored for the Spitfires with 60 in an imposing total of 3-208 in Canterbury. It proved too much for Gloucestershire but only just as late hitting by Ben Charlesworth (38) revived their hopes before 2-22 by Canberran Tom Rogers made sure the champions got their South Group campaign under way with a defeat after being restricted to 7-204. Just the 26 runs off five balls for Zak Crawley 😅 — Vitality Blast (@VitalityBlast) May 30, 2025 Somerset won a repeat of last year's semi-final with Surrey despite a fine innings of 92 by former England opener Jason Roy in a total of 9-146. Overseas pace duo Matt Henry and Riley Meredith claimed three-wicket hauls for the 2024 runners-up, who won by five wickets with 13 balls to spare after Will Smeed (35) led the way at the top of the order. Liam Dawson had Essex in a spin to help Hampshire record a thumping 106-run victory at Ageas Bowl. James Vince (62) was one of three Hawks batters to pass fifty and it helped his team post a mammoth 7-230. Michael Pepper struck 51 for Essex before falling to Dawson (4-26). Birmingham topped North Group last year but started this season with a seven-wicket loss to Nottinghamshire. Sam Hain's unbeaten 92 proved the bedrock of Bears' 5-226, but he was outclassed at Trent Bridge by Jack Haynes. Haynes blitzed 89 not out from 41 balls, with 11 fours and three sixes, to lead the Outlaws home in the final over. Derbyshire made 6-170, but were indebted to 70 down the order from Martin Andersson after 3-37 from Leicestershire's Logan van Been had them reeling on 5-51. A mature innings from Pakistan captain Shan Masood (45no) endured the Foxes chased their target five down with Pat Brown smashed for 47 off his 2.4 overs. With AAP.

The cast of ‘Twin Peaks' is coming to the Bay Area to share their stories. Here's how to get tickets
The celebration of the late David Lynch's legacy continues as cast members of his hit series 'Twin Peaks' tour the country to discuss the groundbreaking TV show with fans. But Bay Area devotees will get an extra treat. 'Twin Peaks: Conversation With The Stars' will hit 18 cities, beginning in Tysons, Va. on Aug. 4, and ending Oct. 20 at the Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo, Wash., where interiors of the Great Northern Hotel were shot. The venue's exterior is where Laura Palmer (played by Sheryl Lee) was found dead in the 1990 pilot episode, which provided the plot for the series. Lee, who also starred in Lynch's 1992 film 'Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me,' is only making select appearances during the tour's West Coast swing — including at Uptown Theatre in Napa on Oct. 17. Actors Ray Wise (who played attorney Leland Palmer), Harry Goaz (Deputy Andy Brennan) and Kimmy Robertson (kooky receptionist Lucy Moran) as well as Sabrina S. Sutherland, the executive producer of the 2017 limited series ' Twin Peaks: The Return,' are scheduled to make appearances at every stop of the tour to talk about their experiences and the legacy of the show, which is credited as a forerunner of prestige television with its continuous storyline and cinematic look. Lynch died on Jan. 16 at age 78. Sutherland told the Hollywood Reporter, which first broke news of the tour on Thursday, May 22, that Lynch signed off on the tour before his death. 'David was very happy that we were going to have this cast tour to celebrate 'Twin Peaks' with the fans all around the U.S.,' Sutherland said. 'It's sad that I won't be able to call him each night to let him know how the show went as I had promised. But I look forward to celebrating his work each night and having him in my heart instead.' 'Welcome to Lynchland,' a documentary about the filmmaker and his work, made its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 14.
