Opening night: Thursday 29 July 6:00pm - 9:00pm

Holly Schulte's Needlework series examines doilies; the crocheted laces or cottons that are a testament to the hours of work each took to create. Using photography to represent and classify her collection, Schulte highlights the individual and complex concentric patterns in each piece, while also drawing attention to loose threads and discolouration, revealing the subtle residue of use.

Holly Schulte has a Bachelor of Photography (Honours) from Queensland College of Art, Griffith University.

 

Jude Hotchkiss combines digital manipulation, video and photographic images with Modernist painting techniques to explore traditional themes of landscape, streetscape and portraiture. In the series Hold Still, Hotchkiss uses painting and video to evoke her experience of a train journey through France, capturing the flickering and fractured effects of motion on the landscape.

Jude Hotchkiss has a Masters of Art from the College of Fine Arts, UNSW.

 

Michelle Loa Kum Cheung's work focuses on the fluidity and transience of clouds, exploring a range of colours and moods. In Loa Kum Cheung’s paintings, clouds act as metaphor for small, background changes in life that are often overlooked in favour of what is concrete, real and at the foreground of consciousness.

Michelle Loa Kum Cheung has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the College of Fine Arts, UNSW.

 

The Postcard Project is a collaboration between Beatrice Markopoulos, Natasha Wills and Lina Zainal. In a world where technology reigns, the artists aim to find comfort in a more intimate way of communicating. Co-creating postcards they post each other through a conglomeration of paint, personal words, letters, photographs, stolen images, overheard conversations, drawings and more, the artists share a part of their imaginations and everyday life. Like a diary among friends, their goal is let each other know that ' I still remember you'.

Beatrice Markopoulos, Natasha Wills and Lina Zainal are currently undertaking a Bachelor of Visual Arts at Sydney College of the Arts, USyd.
