Majose Guzman Invisible Roots 2014


Majose Guzman

Invisible Roots was created as a tribute to the amazing changes that are happening thanks to leaders that are completely engaged with the protection and development of their communities. Invisible Roots hopes to awaken the desire in people, with no regard of their ethnicity, to reconnect with where we come from and who we are, to start realising that our roots make us unique in a world where everything is starting to look the same; and through this desire, inspire the recognition and preservation of our ancestral cultures.

Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger

Lea’s work looks at the connections between art and science and how humans are impacting on our biosphere in the Anthropocene

Audrey Newton I tried i reall did 2015
Audrey Newton

I am a practice led artist who works with investigational techniques in painting, sculpture and installation. I use a variation of mediums as experiments in deforming and destabilizing traditional form.



Cybele Cox Mystic Kittens 2015
Cybele Cox

My large totemic ceramic sculptures construct objects of an archaic imagined ritual cult reiligion that either happened in the past or could be of the future.

Bernadette Smith Our rights are NOT discretionary 1 2015
Bernadette Smith

My art installation investigates the issue of ableism or discrimination against less able bodied swimmers in public pools. In a throwback to the Nazi era elite swimmers are often unfairly privileged while those with injuries, disabilities or older swimmers struggle for equal access. This artwork highlights such social inequality and presents a protest banner, photographic documentation and actual email correspondence between a less able bodied swimmer and pool management. The installation also includes portraits of people randomly selected from the street who were asked to pose in front of this banner to be part of the exhibition if they agreed with its message. http://bernadettesmithart.blogspot.com.au

Nick De Lorenzo

Through alchemical experimentations and abstractions my work explores the materiality of the photograph as an object, and the spaces between painting and photography.



Trevor Fry enlightened being 2014-15
Trevor Fry

I currently work mainly in ceramics, making figurative sculptures inspired by wide ranging sources, from religious art to pop culture monsters and aliens.



Niall Robb Untitled 2015
Niall Robb

Niall Robb is a multidisciplinary artist who engages with varied materialities and minimalist forms, positioning materials and more specifically their surfaces as sites of engagement and wonder, investigating “surface encounters” which trouble conceived notions of the “thickness of existence.”

Each of us has a name – Zelda Schneersohn Mishkovsky.

Each of us has a name, given by God, and given by our parents
Each of us has a name, given by our stature and our smile, and given by what we wear
Each of us has a name, given by the mountains, and given by our walls
Each of us has a name, given by the stars, and given by our neighbours
Each of us has a name, given by our sins, and given by our longing
Each of us has a name, given by our enemies, and given by our love
Each of us has a name, given by our celebrations, and given by our work
Each of us has a name, given by the seasons, and given by our blindness
Each of us has a name, given by the sea, and given by, our death.
