Corinne Loxton | Passages: Paintings from the Warrumbungles and closer to home
27June - 29 July, 2023
From expansive space to enclosing place… As I progress with these paintings, I invite the viewer both to soar within the infinite skies and to explore the intimate abundance of the bushland. Although not obvious from these photos, the skies are tiny 20 x 20 cm pieces that belie the magnitude of their subject. Both the skyscapes and the slightly bigger bush images (30 x 30 cm) require the viewer to approach them closely to experience fully the worlds they represent.
This series of paintings, like the reflection works I made last year, explore my search for meaning and redemption within a painful personal journey of living with loss, shifting realities and obscured horizons
Deirdre Bean | Reloved
3o May - 24 June, 2023
At a time of my life when decisions had to be made about the care of my aged mum, I turned my attention to documenting some of the things that were important to her. As an extension of that idea, I thought of all the things that people hold dear but have no further use for. They are often discarded or pushed to the back of cupboards for ‘safe keeping’ as they are too valuable to throw away. In painting them, the beloved items have a new life and are Reloved.

The above images are my preliminary thoughts on a visual representation of this mash potato bombardment, depicting our lived experience. I am manifesting these scribbles in The Southern Hemisphere, where it seems nothing significant takes place in a world context…
Sorry my mistake; We do have one of the best hospitals systems, having just experienced its benefits in this last week, surrounded by the covid plague, where three members of my family have been inflicted, we had St Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney Shepard us virtually, nursed and doctored kindly through fear of the dread of the unknown by an absolute world class system.
Meanwhile, The commercial stations News on the plasma, reminds us of the incompetence of our prime minister and the equal buffoonery of the opposing side. It doesn’t matter really, like a flood or a fire, when real decisions are made by the madness of real power the consequences to our lives will be handed over to pre ordained destinies.
So here we are, I’m depicting this with plasticine sculpture, oil paints and digital painting. I’ll look back in years too come, at my hieroglyphs at this moment in time of change and confusion, and it will be marked with this exciting new way of scribbling, digital and oil painting a on canvas
Jenny Orchard | Inhabititants of the House that Refused to Participate
4 February - 29 February, 2020
The work in this exhibition “Inhabitants of the House that Refused to Participate”, is based on her experience of selling a family home
during the pandemic and moving to a different house where her totemic guardians, family and disobedient animals, both sentient and ceramic assert a new presence,
and a reminder of the need to notice and reflect on serendipitous associations, fragility and wonder of possibility.
