"Starting the Journey" opened last Wednesday evening. The opening was a great success and was attended by a number of local Sydneysiders. Congratulations to the artists for such a diverse exhibition and thank you to all the people who attended.
About the Exhibition
"Starting the Journey" features the works of emerging artists, Dianne Gerlach, Jenny James, Virginia Lee, Katherine Scott, Jill Stratton-Kelly and Gail Veness, all of whom were Diploma and Advanced Diploma students of the Sydney Gallery School, Meadowbank.
In starting their personal artistic journeys, the artists are consolidating new knowledge while exploring and forging their personal artistic and aesthetic directions. While the theme is shared, each artist interprets "Starting the Journey" in their unique way. This is reflected by the diversity of media, scale and style in the works exhibited, including painting, photography, drawing, printmaking and sculpture. The creation of the work is itself a journey, with planning, execution and final resolution all part of the final outcome and experience for each artist. Just as varied are the thematic approaches of these artists, whose inspirations are sourced from the natural world, the imagined world, humanity, social and historical subjects. Through the works in this exhibition, the artists invite viewers to reflect on journeys made or yet to be made.
"Starting the Journey" runs until Saturday, 2 March at Gallery Lane Cove, Upper Level, 164 Longueville Road, Lane Cove. Opening hours are Monday - Friday 10-4.30pm, Saturday 10-2.30pm.
