✨ NEW EXHIBITION COMING TO MALLEE CREATIVES ✨

PRECISE MOMENTS — JOSIE DILLON LOWERSON

What does a moment look like when an artist holds onto it?

For Josie Dillon Lowerson, it can become timber, metal, line, texture, form or a figure that seems to carry a whole story within it.

Born in Wycheproof and raised on a wheat property in the Mallee, Josie has spent more than five decades creating sculpture and mixed-media work inspired by memory, identity, femininity, landscape and lived experience.

Her extraordinary artistic journey has taken her from regional Australia to exhibitions in New York, Paris, Florence, Barcelona, Naples, Capri and beyond.

Now, her work returns to the Mallee.

Precise Moments invites you to slow down, look closely and discover the memories, gestures, textures and stories held within each work.

📍 Mallee Creatives, Charlton
📅 Friday 2 October – Sunday 15 November
🖼️ Exhibition by Josie Dillon Lowerson

We’d love you to come in and experience this very special exhibition.
