Rachel Hannan: In My Element ~ November 4-26 2023
We are thrilled to be presenting this much anticipated solo show by artist and musician Rachel Hannan. The exhibition will be her first here since moving further west to the beautiful countryside around the Capertee Valley. Music and art are inseparable for Rachel. “In the landscape and in my paintings, I hear melodies in the unpredictability of forms, colour and movement. I feel the rhythms of the repetition and patterns in the natural architecture and the never ending abundance of different flora, water, clouds and surfaces. I bring the visual into my improvising when I sing, and similarly the music flows through my brush when I apply my marks”.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Winterly: Melanie Vugich ~ 8th to 30th of October
I started painting this body of work during the early winter months, when the rain was endless, but the rolling clouds and muted light were so utterly beautiful. As I set up my tablescapes and started mixing colours, my signature shades of pink, coral and amber began to deepen and those moody grey hues in the sky found their way onto my paintbrush.
Being kept inside by the weather and giving myself plenty of preparation time allowed a lot of energy to go into each brushstroke, and I enjoyed generously lathering on the paint. Many of my treasured household objects and books feature, as they always do, my favourite piece of ikat has reappeared and I loved mixing wild banksias with the season’s glorious roses, tulips, irises, sunflowers and poppies.
