Hilary Hatfield
ON THE EDGE
30 July – 29 August
Having lived in the UK, South Africa, and Australia, I am captivated by the vastness and fragility of the African and Australian landscapes. Working intuitively in acrylics, I build layers of colour, texture, and mark-making to explore the natural world through abstraction. Rather than depicting specific places, my paintings evoke their emotional essence and atmosphere, inviting viewers to form their own reflections.

I LIKE THE WOBBLY BITS
2-26 September
Opening: Thursday 3 September, 6:00pm
What do you get when you take a group of creatives and transport them to desert regions? Lots of delicious "wobbly bits“.
That's how recently deceased art world icon David Hockney is said to have described his relationship with the land and with drawing. But beneath the levity sits something larger. Art in the land transforms physical geography into a living, spiritual archive.
It bridges the material world and the human soul, becoming a medium for ecological reverence and for the unseen forces of nature.
This group of artists working in drawing, paint, sculpture and the Land have been given the freedom to explore the depths of their responses to the sublime beauty of our desert regions in Far Western NSW.
Launching in November…
