Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery - On the Side
Location: Central Stories Museum & Art Gallery
Region: Alexandra
Dates: Wed, 6 December 2023 - Sun, 14 January 2024 @ Daily
On the Side' is an exhibition of prints by Helen Darling and Amanda Griffin. It is showing in the Heafey Gallery at Central Stories from Wednesday 6th of December till 14th of January.
Ask a busy person if you need something done. Helen and Amanda are. Both are managing complex roles with people and advocacy. And both find time for Art. Indeed it is their sanctuary, their place to work for themselves.
‘On the Side’ shows prints that are the proof of production from activity, carving lino, traveling and catching photos, collaging and posting. They show personal aesthetic and philosophical choices. Serious and with just a touch of the punk while having fun.
The works present us with the seemingly simple and the highly textured. Both prompt stories for the viewer. In this work we get to see Amanda and Helen seriously reflecting and enjoying their world but be aware there is always a little dark question to answer.
With a number of unframed works, you might find a very special Christmas gift.
