Was great to see ‘Wasted Opportunities’ today at the Willoughby Incinerator Artspace, by Annarie Hildebrand & Yuri Shimmyo, showing until 17 September.

It’s a beautifully curated show of ceramics, printmaking works & oils which cleverly re-imagines our abundance of waste as stunning artworks

Annarie has exhibited on several occasions at White Rhino Artspace over the years. So lovely to see her new body of work.

Open until Friday 18th August …

Was wonderful to return to AD Space Gallery at UNSW Art and Design, Paddington, yesterday to see Jo Mellor-Stuart’s bold and thought-provoking eco-activism exhibition, ‘The Darling Project’, open Monday to Friday, 11am to 4pm.

In ‘The Darling Project’ Jo examines the ongoing environmental crisis in the Menindee Lakes and Darling River region, on Ngiyampaa and Barkandji Country, a result of drought and water mismanagement. The work is guided by the customary knowledge of Ngiyampaa Elder Aunty Beryl Carmichael.

It is a moving multidisciplinary and multifaceted exhibition which traverses Jo’s immersion in the region, exposing the failure of government and corporations to consult with Indigenous groups regarding the environmental crisis.

Jo’s project has traverses four years of intense research, consultation, collaboration and artmaking, which culminates in a rich exhibition presented via textiles, installation, photography and video. The project has involved many Community members including Barkandj Artists Cheryl Bore, Barb Quale and Cindy Bates; Sydney Artists Terhi Hakola, Jenny Tubby and Bernadette Facer.

In 2019, Jo and Bernadette exhibited ‘FLUX’ at White Rhino Artspace.

Open today! Last day to see TRUST ME by Antony Wettstein

Today, Sunday 11 December: Join us this afternoon and meet the artist at our Finissage Event from 2 to 6pm.

We have had an amazing response celebrating the amazing body of work created by this talented doctor who happens to be my husband. He finally found time to explore his creative side during downtimes enforced by Pandemic lockdowns. Repurposing rusty metal refuse and farm equipment sourced from rural Australia as templates for his work, Antony has developed his own method of dremeling into the unique surfaces of these decaying substrates.
