Unveiling of Epiphany of Paint by William Holt & From Where I Begin by Nikki Willson

exhibitions opening

Sun 6 Oct @ 2.00pm | Burrinja Gallery

Join us for the official opening of these two exhibitions on Sunday 6 October, from 2pm, with complimentary refreshments and live music by local singer-songwriter Jon Collins.

Epiphany of Paint by William Holt | Gallery 01

Painter William Holt invites viewers to experience his latest collection of contemporary abstract art, as he delves deeper into his expanded creative practice. He fosters a strong connection to the raw quality of the artwork, rather than attempting to showcase a sense of completion or finality. This allows the art to retain life, to be still living within a vibrant imaginative realm of experimentation.

From Where I Begin by Nikki Willson | Galleries 02 & 03

This video installation examines the connections and ruptures we make while living between the two realities of our internal and external worlds. As an artist with a disability, Nikki Willson's experience of reconciling this inherent disconnect can be a difficult and painful one. With these works she uses the body as a tool to make these struggles visible.
