SPACE 1:
Lindesay Dresdon
My artwork celebrates the infinite ways in which ideas and materials can be transformed into vibrant, expressive visual statements. The interplay of gestures, colours and shapes ; the creation of surface textures ; and the joy of composition are key elements in my painting, printmaking, mixed-media, and collage explorations
Sheena Mathieson
I have been making art forever. I love limiting my palette and making do with what I have at hand. It has been said that there is something of the scientist in how I create, as I explore the process of mark making and materials and developing tangential techniques. I love the unexpected – challenging the medium, and producing works which are playful and colourful.

SPACE 2:
Group Show : VISCERA
VISCERA : Guts, embodiment, ritual and unrest.
Viscera finds common ground between four artists through ritual and catharsis in their explorations of subjectivity, communication and embodiment. With roots in expressionist and history painting, Bonnie, Paula, Ned and Sean both explore and reconcile with different states of being through their use of intuitive and experimental sculptural and painting practices.
As we position ourselves in a violent shifting political and ecological landscape, the brutality of Viscera aims to contribute to the normalisation of addressing discomfort, and in turn, the collective truth-telling that is crucial for our transition into a contemporary cultural landscape.
Sean is a Bachelor student at LCI Melbourne, Bonnie-Jean Whitlock and Paula Maggs are 2023 Master of Fine Art Graduates from RMIT, where Ned is a current student in the same program. -

WINDOW ROOM EXHIBIT :
Lucija Zaja
The art I make is dedicated to exploring my mental landscapes. I am on the quest to understand myself, experiences that shaped me, my own personal as well as collective history, and the world we live in. My process of creating reflects the relationship between construction and deconstruction, chaos and order, frustration and peace, soft and aggressive. I’m exploring past, traumatic events and how they transpire through our everyday lives. The questions raised often refer to integration and awareness of trauma, and how these events linger in our lives, even more so if we try to ignore them. The paintings I make are an invitation to embrace our tragedies and demons, and allow all of our parts to stand together equally in order to understand ourselves better.
