for the month of june i shall be the resident artist at the station gallery Beverley, Avon River Valley, Western Australia. partly this is due to meeting up with fellow Bubbler Donna Malone, when she came over here last year, and encouraged me to “give it a go” ! great thing about friends, encouraging you to take risks!
so if you are in the area, do drop in. i shall be hanging a mail art show of works by friends from the “eternal network”who have mailed work to the project, doing a solo show, collage/paintings, and running two community art" get togethers" at the station for people in Beverley. all these are on the theme Spirit of Place, or Genius Loci as the Romans called it, a much beloved theme for artists/writers, and i hope we all have a ball. thanks to all here for your continuing support, its great having this artist community.
cheers helen
ps if you are interested to connect with me re collaborations, especially contemporary art in the wheatbelt,avon river valley region,please get in touch.
