2015 NEWS wrap
2015 news wrap, including news about artists, exhibitions, awards and our Project Space's one year anniversary.
A Sense of Place | Robbie Harmsworth
A series of pencil and watercolour landscapes drawing from Harmsworth childhood memories, resulting in images which are distorted, vivid and exaggerated.
Apropos | Jennifer Goodman
A series of collage works through which Goodman's free-form shapes move, bend, overlap & swerve.
District | Rachel Coad
Rachel Coad’s paintings in District depict rural Australians in the post war era.
Winter Solstice 1 | a group exhibition
Winter Solstice 1 was an exhibition comprising paintings and works on paper, all celebrating the astronomical transition from the shortest day of the year.
Forest of Dreams | Martin King
Forest of Dreams uses the lyrebird as a symbol of beauty, mystery and exuberance. King's works synthesise the human and the animal, beauty and the macabre, nature and ‘nature morte’.
Landforms & Lagoons | Sue Lovegrove + Charmaine Pike
This duo-solo exhibition expresses two contrasting views of the natural environment – one which looks upward to the dry crags and peaks that puncture the earth’s crust and one which delves below the surface into the swampy depths of lakes, tarns and lagoons.
Wundergarten | Ted May
There is a feeling of wonder in Ted May’s new series of works, which reference objects as diverse as ancient Greek vases to paintings from the modernist period. May’s new paintings include monolithic vases filled with alien floral arrangements, stacked and discarded fragments and abstracted, entwined figures, set on a low horizon against a deep blue ground.
Echo / Palimpsest | Ian Friend
For more than 30 years, Ian Friend has developed subtle and evocative works on paper that reflect his longstanding engagement with jazz, poetry and architecture.
Un-Still Life | Junko Go
Employing still life as metaphor, Junko Go’s work in Un-Still Life represents her subjective reflections on life.
