@ trolley

There's a new groove in the neighbourhood! A new space in Gordonvale - opening this Saturday 7th Nov 6.30am-1pm:

trolley studio [art + coffee]

Last week I sat sipping sweet peach iced tea, tapping away to They Might Be Giants and taking in the amazing creations of Kylie and Ian, surrounded by great art and awesome peeps... just meters from our local IGA [pinch - awesome - it is real!]

trolley studio opens [officially] this weekend - pop down on Saturday morning and treat yourself.  While you are there you can check out the art on exhibition, including one of my recent pieces [see pic above].

@ tanks 

Opening TONIGHT, Friday 6th Nov, 6pm at Tanks Art Centre [Tank 4] is Sub-0 The Affordable Art Show.  

Presented by Knock Knock Contemporary Artists' Initiative the exhibition features diverse artworks from around thirty Cairns based artists and should be a great night out and a great show.  I have a series of seven new works featured in this exhibition [images and details below].

There is also an online catalogue where you can view/purchase artists works.

‘At the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started 
And know the place for the first time.’
[T.S. Elliot]

Nautical maps are metaphors for navigation.  Topography becomes a palimpsest of experiences both revealed by and imposed upon the landscape… meditations on [dis]location; the striving to find one’s way to ‘home’.


Simultaneously excavating and creating the strata of memory…
