Light and Life

|
Growth, gravity, fragility, balance, continuance.
Change, and man's interaction with nature
and its balance is ongoing concern. Where possible I use throwaway,
discarded or re-usable material. The material often dictates the
outcome of the work.

Sally Carpenter
Part of the work involves an investigation of
suburbia and its effect on the landscape. Who dwells behind the
brick facades? |
Joanne de la Salle
My work is about the process of making. I use metal
wire to create meshes which may look fragile but can stand the test
of time. It's about contradictions, beauty and the harshness of
life. |
Diana Francocci
"Animal, vegetable and mineral". Fusion of the basic
materials clay and wax, with lard, salt and sugar into the fragile,
cushion-like forms, reflect the stresses that are placed on and
within the body, by the excess of refined food that current
lifestyles evoke. |
Emma Jackson
Within every unopened box there is a treasure chest
of memories to be found. |
Doris Lacey
In our consumer orientated society we are
progressively bombarded with ideas of what we want by the mass
media; magazines and their high technology snapshots of fashion
erotica are used to lure and trap. Beauty products and lifestyle
magazines aesthetically feed and create personal fantasies with
their high gloss images that use the seductive power of women. The
paintings reflect the trap of this desire and the desirable. |
Laurie Lines
My world is constructed by the colours which feed my
imagination. |
Alfreda McHale
St. Mary's was commissioned as a maternity hospital
in the 1940's and de-commissioned in the early 80's. "Memories
Maternal" is a site-specific installation which explores this
particular slice of the building's history. |

Using medical materials, I construct highly formal,
clinical sculptures that make reference to themes of life , death
and illness. I try to create conflicts of emotions and differing
tensions such as seduction and fear, power and vulnerability, and
comfort and pain. |
Angela Stride
My work is based on investigations into brain
function and states of mind. Lately I have focused on connection and
issues of control, especially when these misfire or fail. |
Sally Tissington
From a variety of colourful, sparkling and textured
materials, I build miniature, utopian landscapes, which I photograph
and then blow up into large prints. My work represents the natural
phenomena that could exist on another planet. |
