Here we are 2017!
I have completed my studio residency with the Blacktown Arts Centre and now starting new work for my next group exhibition with IWVAC-Australia called Turquoise Paradox opening in April.
But before I get going on the new project I want to reflect a moment on the work developed in the Blacktown Studios. I have immensely enjoyed the experience of just creating for the sake of creating, exploring processes and the luxury of not having a finished product at the end; rather a series of beginnings to keep me going for another year or two possibility even three.
Being in residence at the studios was mainly about exploring my creativity and connecting to the space and my practice. I found myself returning to drawing and collage, it has been lovely to play with ink and charcoal and remembering how much I loved tearing paper!
I have filled the space with a huge collection of works and objects that have inspired me and I would love to share that space with you all before it’s time to pack up and move out!
I am opening the studio up to the public to see what I have created during my time there.
Please join me next Friday 20th January 6-9pm at 121 Main St, Blacktown.
The works will also be for sale (studio prices – no commissions added)
