Hmmm still deciding what to paint on Saturday. A warning, I’m not fast!
Painting white fabric has its challenges, maybe a simple Brussells’ lace.
No need to book, just come. I’m happy to answer any questions you might have about your own paintings.
IF FABRICS COULD SPEAK - participate in a community art project
I invite you to participate in a new project exploring fabrics and the way family memories and culture are held within their weft and warp. It will be a inclusive celebration of the private creativity of our socially and culturally diverse community.
Do you have a fabric that has special meaning to you? Maybe it has been passed down in your family. Perhaps you learnt to sew, knit, weave, embroider with your mother or grandmother. Or it may have a history of manufacture in your culture like silk, brocade or linen.
During SALA I would like to record the special memories of your fabric and photograph a still life based around your fabric during one on one development sessions. Please email me to discuss your access needs and book your weekday sessions via my contact page.
Sessions will be held from August 7th to 22nd 10am, 12am and 2am.
If you would like to participate and need another time frame please do not hesitate to call me on 0481215753.
The photographs will be printed and displayed as part of an ongoing SALA installation. Later the stories and photographs will be combined in an Adelaide Fringe Exhibition in 2023.
