Jo Wheeler
Jo Wheeler is an artist influenced by the landscape in which she lives, the Victorian Surf Coast. Her paintings reflect the world from above, drawing inspiration from the light and shadows of the sea, sand, surf and sky as she provides a bird’s eye perspective of the landscape through it’s shape, texture and form. Working with oil on canvas, the works burst with the colour of the outback, referencing the rich red and ochre earth tones witnessed during Jo’s travels through the Northern Territory.
Life in Saunter
Curated by Keer Zhang & Zijing Lei (Lilac)
Sauntering nurtures a sense of closeness among individuals and allows thoughts to wander around without restraint. It is an act devoid of a specific purpose. Yet within these leisurely steps of sauntering, one finds relief for both the physical and psychological self, offering a moment to observe something meaningful.
Unlike a sluggish standstill or frenzied run, sauntering unfolds naturally at the most comfortable pace and speed. When we engage in this act of sauntering, our surroundings neither overwhelm nor remain entirely serene, exhoing the nuanced nature of our relationships with others. If we can maintain a harmonious pace, let us saunter together for a while.

FACES
Curated by Damien Laing
Thinking of the a means of unifying this group exhibition, my mind returned again and again to the word pair Faces Places, I was unsettled to see that pairing in a strange marriage of a film between Agnes Varda and the artist JR, and holding onto the idea the the face as a map of the emotions, the seal of an identity, already has a sense of place or setting - I thought we could push on with just faces. In the exhibition you will see a range of expressions that will hopefully speak to you with emotion and force.
