Venue: Project Gallery, QCAD GalleriesDate: 21 August
Time: 4 – 7pm
Artist Talk: 4 – 5pm
As part of the prize as winner of The Environmental Art Award, Lauren Edmonds and Flying Arts present Long Transient Feeling, a solo exhibition of previous and new works in a two-week exhibition at the Project Gallery supported by QCAD.
Long Transient Feeling is an exhibition of new media installations, animations, and 2D works uses the motif of a train as a visual metaphor for collective unease in a time of uncertainty and compounding crises. The works explore how this sense of forward motion, despite an unclear destination, intersects with issues like the post-truth instability, climate inaction, and growing social divides. Drawing from the allegorical tradition of the Ship of Fools, Edmonds reimagines the train as both a symbol of collective momentum and a liminal space for reflection. Melancholic, yet edged with glimmers of hope and resilience, the exhibition considers the tension between passivity and agency – and what it means to persist in a moment of time that feels simultaneously fast-moving and fixed in the status quo.
Lauren Edmond’s winning artwork of the Environmental Art Award is Dark Forebodings (2024). This work is currently on tour in Resolution, the QRAA touring exhibition, on show now in Charters Towers.
Join us from 4pm for an Artist Talk with Lauren Edmonds and Flying Arts Program Manager Louella Michael
