Well, it is the equinox and 22/3/22, so that is something to write about. That's done then.
I visited the Counihan Gallery at the Brunswick Town Hall last week. My main reason for going was to see the works by Ema Shin. They were amazing! 3D shapes that were either woven tapestry or embroidered. The story was interesting too. Artist statements can make works so much more meaningful.
I am going to be attending a workshop run by Ema in April. Her work was very inspiring, I am looking forward to the workshop even more after seeing the exhibition. I think it will be very challenging.
Another room had lager-phones on display. Unfortunately we were not allowed to play them! It is probably fortunate for the person on duty at the entrance though. This exhibition was called The Sparrow Made Some Beer.
They were beautiful and cheery. They had been carved into the shapes of animal heads - based on Lithuania. The bottle tops were arranged to add colour and dimension to the imagery.
