WENDY STAVRIANOS ‘THROUGH THE WINDOW OF AN INNER ROOM’ PREVIEWED BY JOHN MCDONALD IN ‘THE AGE & SYDNEY MORNING HERALD’ 20 SEPTEMBER

September 20, 2019

Art: Wendy Stavrianos By John McDonald September 20, 2019 — 11.44pm Wendy Stavrianos. Lives: Walmer, VIC. Age: 78. Represented by: Nicholas Thompson Gallery, Melbourne; no Sydney gallery Her thing. Expressive, semi-abstract landscapes of the imagination. Our take. Wendy Stavrianos’s new works explore that borderline between the studio and the external world, between observation and memory, landscape and invention.

AMBER WALLIS EXHIBITED IN ‘M_OTHERING THE PERCEPTUAL ARTS POETICA’ AT COUNIHAN GALLERY, BRUNSWICK

September 4, 2019

‘This exhibition seeks to explore how maternal roles are being approached in creative practice. Curated by Abbra Kotlarczyk and Antonia Sellbach, ‘m_othering the perceptual ars poetica’ is an examination of intersectional approaches to mothering and parentage, to include not only the care of children but of the environment and cultural spaces — their histories, forms and legacies. Within the broader context of care-taking and custodianship, the exhibition seeks to describe how maternal roles are being approached in, and at the sidelines of, creative practice. In this way, the exhibition poses how ‘m_othering’ might function as a framework that speaks to…
