Model Citizens, Wobble and Me.

Wobble Magazine centre fold.

This weekend is the exhibition Model Citizens- I have a couple of pieces in it including this one which is featured in local Canberra magazine Wobble!

This artwork- Sleep In - is something I made at the end of last year/ beginning of this year and then exhibited in Blaze at Gorman House. 

So I'm showing the same artwork again- which I felt a bit funny about.

But when it comes down to it, I am happy to. 

I still love this piece, and more than that even though it was made a bit ago it is still relevant. It is tactile and homely, familiar yet unexpected, laboured over and thought about- Sleep In still expresses what I want to say today. Not everyone made it to Blaze, and even if they did, here you go for a second viewing.

Yes, I have been more than usually busy with other things lately, but 

I'm still keen to make and exhibit the fresh and new, although I don't always have to.

There is something so satisfying about seeing my name in print!

The exhibition ‘Model Citizens’ of Apartment G09/G10 will open on Saturday 27 – 28 Sunday October, Kendall Lane, NewActon, Canberra. This pop-up exhibition is curated by Chloe Mandryk and supported by the multi-arts festival Art, Not Apart. 

 By the way, artist profiles are posted in the lead up to the show on the artonshow website.
