Artist’s Statement<br />
This series of paintings continues a fascination with the ordinary and mundane everyday glimpses. The work is an eclectic mix of service stations, airport terminals and shopping centres with a sprinkling of urban and suburban imagery. The paintings capture a moment in time, simple and ordinary that we often take for granted, with social or personal narrative arising from each individual scene. The camera was a contributing factor in this work, where images are often captured at a glimpse, in a fleeting moment.<br />
The light, natural and artificial is a linking factor; the exterior landscapes are carried by specific light and time of day, the interiors with their strange light of fluros and their glow in the night of the ‘servos’.<br />
<br />
There is an ongoing research and fascination in the painting process itself. Some paintings have been painted in the old masters tradition using a tonal grisaille under-painting with colour glazed on top. Following my long involvement with ‘en plein air’ painting, working directly outdoors, all the work in this show has been painted in the studio, ‘alla prima’ (in one session), in the case of the old masters approach, extended ‘alla prima, where each of the two stages are done directly in one session. I want to capture the narrative related to a particular moment in time, keeping a freshness and simplicity of meaning without changing and adding intellectual process and refinement by subsequent layers or days of painting.<br />
<br />
These paintings continue the experimentation with an oil painting technique attributed to the old masters prior to the use of solvents or the use modern chemical paint additives and mediums. Aside from some modern synthetic pigments, the entire process is fully organic, without any toxic or solvent substances, putting the studio alchemy back to full artistic control.<br />

Cut and paste is an exhibition of collages in various forms. As a basis for<br />
these I have used a variety of found images and objects, in combination with<br />
my own drawings, to which I have applied scissors and paste, needle and<br />
thread, and some digital assembly techniques.<br />
<br />
In most cases the subjects were suggested by the found images or materials.<br />
The series of pictures of the transit of Venus was triggered by a Google<br />
image search at the time of that event. The sock series was inspired in part<br />
by the work of Rosalie Gascoigne (and her celebration of the inherent beauty<br />
of the materials she used) and in part by the cleaning out of my sock<br />
drawer.<br />

<i>I have always been drawn to the challenge of landscape which for me is to transform the visible and actual into compositions that acknowledge and reflect the multi-layered personal and human experience of place.<br />
These works are about certain significant places that I have lived in or visited in past years. <br />
<br />
Sketches done at the time were the starting point for these new works and the resulting variety of forms came about as I strove to let each place and my questions about it work on and through me.</i> <br />

<i>Homelands is an eclectic mix of street views, pubs and old miners cottages, in and around Dudley, which gives the suburb its uniqueness. The banality of the simple urban backyard is my inspiration.</i> <br />

<b>Nine artists respond to Fetish.</b><br />
A fetish can be many things. It can be an object regarded with awe as the embodiment of a potent spirit or idea, one which elicits reverence, respect or devotion. It can be a course of action to which one has an excessive commitment, or something that causes a habitual erotic response.<br />
The nine artists who accepted the challenge of responding to the theme of Fetish have explored its many permutations in very different ways, resulting in an exciting range of works including sculpture, printmaking, photography, painting and fibre art.<br />
<b>Leonie Andrews</b> employs long stitch to portray objects she has stumbled across which seem to have a kind of animation about them. In her hands, everything from parking meters to fishing floats might become fetish objects.<br />
<b>Sally Dooner</b> is an avid collector of objects both natural and man-made and suggests that her actual art practice and processes of assemblage and sculpture are themselves a kind of fetish. Her collected material is here displayed in light boxes and photographs.<br />
<b>Sarah Jones</b> likes her work to both hide and reveal at the same time. Her long fascination with the photographs of Eadweard Muybridge results in wonderful layered prints incorporating painting and stitching.
Gina McDonald has responded to a Brancusi quote featuring ‘fetish’ with delicate, sensitive prints.<br />
<b>Sylvia Ray</b> casts body parts in fine clay to create works that are mischievous, provocative and amusing. Using friends and family members as subjects and models, she explores the ideas of pleasure, play and fun in ways that are light-hearted and sometimes profound.<br />
<b>Eleanor Jane Robinson</b> has always loved walking at night and seeing glimpses of people’s lives like little lit tableau. She also believes that in an age of surveillance cameras, cctv and reality television we all live complacently in a voyeuristic culture. Her drawings of ‘gazes’ (the lookers) and ‘glimpses’ (what is seen) have been stitched on swathes of cloth reminiscent of curtains.<br />
<b>
Daniel Smith</b>, a man with ‘way too many projects and not enough time’, has nevertheless found the space to create quirky little dioramas portraying some of the myriad sexual foibles and fetishes we humans are prone to.<br />
<b>Rose Turner</b> , initially inspired by sci fi film, ‘Invasion of the Body Snatchers’, explores a flower/human morph which brings the body and the plant world together in a disturbing union. Her painting realises the idea of probing and fingering the fine depths of a flower.<br />
<b>Clare Weeks</b> has a fascination for relationships between seemingly disparate co-existing elements. By taking found road kill, placing and photographing it on wallpaper, she creates a new artificial landscape which portrays man’s impact on nature and the desire to bring the natural world into the domestic environment.<br />

<b>ARTIST STATEMENT</b>
Ever since I was a child, the interior workings of machinery have fascinated me, gears and cogs, pistons, nuts and bolts, to me, they all combine to create a magical happening, but without just one of them, things wont work.Growing up on an orchard and spending time around farm machinery nurtured this fascination. Now, as an adult, these things are part of the fascination that has become the Steampunk genre, fantasy, fashion, machinery, all blending together to become yet another magical happening.
Since I became truly comfortable in my Fine Art degree, and began to trust my conceptual ideas, I have found myself steering my art towards this genre, and creating pieces with elegance and industry combined.
My wish is to show the audience that rusty old machinery still has it’s use and can become a thing of beauty and intrigue once again, through the use of many mediums.

Visual art offers us the opportunity to reflect on the human condition and provides us with a way to transform our understanding. In a time of increasing reliance on technology it is the practice and study of new media itself, the aesthetic and philosophical concerns that can clarify our position within the world. In the exhibition DIAMETRIC I employ a range of contrasting art-making techniques unconditional craft, such as sewing and fabric casting, as well as computer technologies such as interactive software, digital video visual effects and digital imaging. The combination of techniques is a deliberate strategy to blur the boundaries between art, craft and digital reproduction.

I love ink, charcoal and nice paper, so I’m rather bias. Thadeous commented about the importance of the paper and brushes used when making studies in ink. I agree and the quality of these studies is enhanced by the Archival paper and goat hair brushes used by the artist.<br /><br />Thadeous worked at David Jones in retail in another life and I guess the numerous, moody studies of the now vacant DJs store are explorations of that past existence, as well as very beautiful gestural studies of the architecture of that old shopping hub, now gone quiet. I love the gestural studies in neon of traffic jams. Who would imagine a traffic jam to be so vibrant?<br /><br />The photographs are taken at night and the artificial street light scenes are hard to describe... lonely & beautiful. The photos remind me of quiet nights in the centre of town, the solitude of the empty city streets of Newcastle after midnight when pretty much everything is closed. The images are raw and unframed, which gives an opportunity to see the work intimately, without the formal glass and frame barrier usual when art is exhibited.<br /><br />For me this is what these works are; seeing beauty in the everyday and mundane, traffic jams, street lights and the familiar buildings of the decrepit town centre. I do see what you see, I think Thadeous. Newcastle's landmarks, that we see every day as we wander or rush past the same buildings, trees and Hunter Street traffic, stopped at the lights. Thank you for reminding me. It is easy to forget to look with wonder, with fresh eyes. It is even more challenging to capture that mood and wonder in a gestural study or digital photograph.<br /><br />Fern York<br />http://culturehunter.org/notice-board/review-do-you-see-what-i-seepodspace@octapod.orghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14669271332359652012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554463748301602283.post-243443200819565892012-02-20T02:50:00.006-08:002012-03-24T19:14:13.945-07:00Two, Too, To, 2 | Peter SPEIGHT and Ahn WELLS<span style="font-weight:bold;">Wednesday 22 February - Saturday 10 March 2012</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Opening night:</span> Thursday 23 February from 6pm<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">GALLERY OPEN: WED - SAT 12-5PM</span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYvaDb6Afd8O7gwYNFrgjCjqBs4buVt22RNm55A0BmiEz9C0cDQEvPVbCRk0CcnyTBsrzqJFq1o7Vl2Bnmo0Kktex2WsAdKMLHKrL3i_EYVSUlQfZATHFrfqZgh836YZs8UgRJfwXuU60/s1600/back%2528Two%252CToo%252CTo%252C2%2529.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 210px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYvaDb6Afd8O7gwYNFrgjCjqBs4buVt22RNm55A0BmiEz9C0cDQEvPVbCRk0CcnyTBsrzqJFq1o7Vl2Bnmo0Kktex2WsAdKMLHKrL3i_EYVSUlQfZATHFrfqZgh836YZs8UgRJfwXuU60/s320/back%2528Two%252CToo%252CTo%252C2%2529.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711169075059112978" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh6SWJMZTtMqxCLty5kvkb1Z8NlGD4JoRigUptoPs0Set7Po-Cd6JtaQvocHmARFCo6Awx8OYg8mDnjucixpclVZJM1B7k7cxsz1mNSI9yzNUgzrTbAo4HJO2c-FIRp2d_WaMLLIYG5X4/s1600/front%2528Two%252CToo%252CTo%252C2%2529.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 210px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh6SWJMZTtMqxCLty5kvkb1Z8NlGD4JoRigUptoPs0Set7Po-Cd6JtaQvocHmARFCo6Awx8OYg8mDnjucixpclVZJM1B7k7cxsz1mNSI9yzNUgzrTbAo4HJO2c-FIRp2d_WaMLLIYG5X4/s320/front%2528Two%252CToo%252CTo%252C2%2529.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5711169070463024642" /></a><br />This exhibition sees both artists pushing their individual art practices into new directions. SPEIGHT will be exhibiting for the first time drawings within a white gallery space. While WELLS is exploring ideas beyond her signature pattern and abstract based works on paper.<br /><br />Dwuan LaTrobe writes about the works:<br /><br />"Ahn's works are a series she entitles Garden Party Suite. And I'm transported to a world where things are much simpler. Tea on the lawn and a nice game of croquet. When video games looked like:<br /><br />You awake in a garden. To the west the blooms are huddled close. There are paths to South, North, East.<br />>look blooms<br /><br />Pixelated pinpricks, hexagonal cartwheels; I love the simplistic nature of Ahns work. There's a certain etherealness to it, like the ghost of a tatterdemalion. Poke it with a stick and it just disappears.<br /><br />Peter's work, on the other hand, doesn't do anything like fade away into the back ground, it's just there. The wry wit of a mad magician with a well-thumbed tarot deck of fantastical images. In an inverted 35 card spread on 2 walls. Blasting away with colour, seeped in symbolism. A well-spiced psychedelic soup.<br /><br />I like the one with the divers. It's telling me something deep."<br /><br />http://culturehunter.org/notice-board/review-two-too-2<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilHAnQRHKnx5e4SMZhyphenhyphenjwCuDEZB5RQfjjpHZ1NXaxlUxKr7ifaDDbXzfIhmp99uFkkwTz6_kAgQLyRp7Be4xTfLSFvY-n8DVr9Z2joQiR5NTiYCFJEKGlR4wYfoE6vepksgcwQfdneiIs/s1600/IMG_2122.JPG"><img style="display:block;

After the builders had gone and the dust settled, there emerged a gallery for emerging and established artists. Upon seeing his work in the new space artist, Peter Lankas said “It's a cute tight space that will definitely work.” It speaks of intimate times with works, and sharing personable musings over some wine with the artists - all snuggly like.<br /><br />For the grand opening, a group of past exhibitors have come together to fund-raise the cost of the refurbishment of the new space. A wild mix of texture and colour, mediums collide against one another and the fresh white walls of newness. Now is a great time to get reacquainted with an old friend in crisp-cut clothes. And, if you missed the opening, you can see it all again at The Octapod relaunch December 2, 4-6pm!<br /><br />Dwuan LaTrobe (Octapod staff member)<br /><br /><br />Watch the opening night introduction by Jen:<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxK9Ng-isG07jrW5Y3YChEBP-MPkcGNj8M-r1bspMySDEAOLLFGMFb4puo0HzlX2Six9Q1XG6CCpH8JBpNuDg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br />PODspace thanks all the artists who contributed work to this exhibition: Michael BELL, Michelle BRODIE, Simone DARCY, Jen DENZIN, Penny DUNSTAN, Peter LANKAS, Claire MARTIN, Anne MCLAUGHLIN, Olivia PARSONAGE, Michael RANDALL, Una REY, Emily ROBERTS, Mandy ROBINSON, Alison SMITH, Peter SPEIGHT, Lezlie TILLEY, Shan TURNER-CAROLL, Ahn WELLS, Josh WHITE.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX8hPqbEESW4N9MXwu0V4sNei8-W5yVZtZTRNV_J1vShdAPhcbqM3nq55uHlVtH-1jHM8rTNNB1AW8dpAWvc2zJ3lLHDsJWRb3asVKeoQObUHIv_IfHisscPpdV2qNg3UYyeePsvdRoRY/s1600/PODspaceFUND%25281%2529.jpg"><img style="display:block;

We who are many is an installation of reworked hymnbook paper, on which she has produced a multitude of Van Dyke* prints.<br /><br />Dunstan’s artistic study has been directed by the principles of permaculture. The ‘edge’ is an important principle in permaculture since it is where the most action occurs such as biomass in a natural system or ideas in artistic study. Applying the land management principles from her background in agriculture and viticulture, Penny has explored the productive edges between disciplines.<br /> <br />We who are many is a parable about the place of individuals in a community using impressions of plants and Christian hymn text.<br /><br />The exhibition will be opened by John Morris, Head Teacher, Newcastle Art School (Hunter TAFE) on Thursday 12th May, from 6pm.<br /> <br />*The technique ‘Van Dyke’ was invented in 1842 by the English astronomer Sir John Herschel, and utilizes the action of light on ferric salts.podspace@octapod.orghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14669271332359652012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554463748301602283.post-28008654289792121982011-04-16T16:14:00.000-07:002011-05-10T23:36:34.109-07:00<span style="font-weight:bold;">SOFT in the HEAD</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Olivia Parsonage</span><br /><br />Wednesday 20 April - Saturday 7 May 2011<br /><br />Opening night: <span style="font-weight:bold;">Thursday 21 April, 6-8pm</span><br /><br />Free and all welcome<br /><br />http://oliviaparsonage.blogspot.com/<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X8uhDNq9VDM/TYeCuWQ2IPI/AAAAAAAAAUY/0nMI_hBxNR4/s1600/OliviaParsonage_e-invite.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 237px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X8uhDNq9VDM/TYeCuWQ2IPI/AAAAAAAAAUY/0nMI_hBxNR4/s320/OliviaParsonage_e-invite.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586577595538219250" /></a><br />Soft In The Head is a collection of ‘fabric illustrations’ that Olivia Parsonage has made during 2011. They capture her quirky sense of the absurdity of everyday living. There is a silent narrative to each piece that can be found while enjoying the sinister undertones sewn into each of the works. They are influenced by childhood tales of monsters and folklore fears of nature and animals and everyday moments that make up our human existence. <br /> <br />Each fabric illustration is created from the materials lying around in Parsonage's studio at Newcastle Community Arts Centre. Within this space, she knows her materials and can sort through their contents in search of a particular piece that will be the beginning of a work. She uses a variety of fabrics from heavy upholstery to lightweight cottons and breaks sewing conventions by joining these together. <br /> <br />All of Parsoange’s art is a dissection of her unique view of the world around her. “Life is ultimately ridiculous” she says, adding “In my opinion”.<br /> <br />Parsonage is an illustrator, sculptor and fabric artist. She completed a Diploma of Fine Art at Hornsby TAFE in 1998 and Bachelor of Natural History Illustration at the University of Newcastle in 2009. She has previously exhibited in Sydney at Hornsby TAFE and Eden Gardens and in the Newcastle region at Watt Space Gallery, John Paynter Gallery and Maitland Town Hall.

Return to Super Death Canyon: Payback Time is a collection of video game levels based on an original game concept.<br /><br />Blood sucking alien bats, sea monsters, grotesque mutated forms and tentacled end-bosses are just some of the fiends that our hero Carlos must battle in this epic revenge platformer.<br /><br />The works are presented in the pixelated style of 1980’s 8-bit games, printed in large format and spanning the gallery walls. There is a large chunk of video game kitsch thrown in for good measure. The drawing is currently being converted into a working platform game, by Wirehead, with a demo being available to play on opening night.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioWAU6Fq1v4aW1FtCsnAu0wyyKXmFSiByhiVydsPWSrLXYPLJ6YNUhyYz5y9SUp09-aY9t-koYulFvDsQdxRMj1-HY2V5jO756cL13brGjEF4sPh_OEDjAgLw5v_WzLgbVMs87R77iv0s/s1600/IMG_3413.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Witnessing centuries of the figure painted on<br />that verdant grassy island, sitting in private drawing rooms and hearing<br />family stories all informed the violent grass imagery. A boy is punished<br />for touching wet paint; a baby is placed out of hearing range to cry alone.<br /><br />“My imagination roamed on the reaches of Empire based on a careful<br />'disregard' for children and what part this might have played in the<br />violence implicit in Colonialism. This is a just one simple glance at<br />the complex history linking the lush-green and the grey-green islands. We<br />all have ancestral collages in our heads. Sometimes we’re compelled to get<br />them out and put them down.”<br /> <br />- Una Rey, March 2011<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcUgk8rpGnIpIHT9Y8CGNQbR_mxagxn0UkGRrkAPZt0GAmq6a6EFt40PLTzJFbPStqxoWWUhzNmfYTZSdkJvMBOQKc_N5dHJrEnZEpyCNrZPpsqnamf2X_bbjw0097ohndZVqEAz-f6cc/s1600/IMG_3336.JPG"><img style="display:block;
