PAPER-CUTTING EXHIBITION: ELEMENTAL BY TIANLI ZU
Tianli Zu is an artist trained in China and Australia. Her work embodies deep experience of both places and cultures. It is, though, neither commentary nor description, but living thing. Elemental synthesizes an expressive singularity that seemingly hosts all things natural and manufactured. Her forms contain and embody a series of boiling tensions and frissons that she marshals and conjures in objects of striking beauty.
When: Between Friday 20 March and Thursday 02 April from 10.00 to 17.00

KEVIN MCKAY - 'GLORY DAYS: SOUTH SYDNEY STUDIES'
“This series of small paintings explores the unique urban landscape surrounding the Brenda May Gallery. I enjoy finding beauty in the everyday and immersing myself in a locality where traditional working class terraces, public housing towers and contemporary development produce surprising geometries animated by atmosphere and light. They were painted en plein-air and in the studio during the summer of 2014-15.” – Kevin McKay, 2014
