Five new exhibitions open at Linden
Thursday 17 April at 6pm
Yakkadee Yak Yah Yah Yah, by Robert McHaffie & Michelle Ussher in
Gallery 1, is an
exhibition of oil and watercolour paintings of objects and figures dealing with portraiture
and the perception of one’s surrounding environment in which subjects, and the relationships
that form between them, evoke untold narratives.
"Sunyata", a Japanese word, is the concept of nothingness out of which we
construct our world according to our peculiar politics of vision. In Gallery 2,
Bill Sampson reproduces layers of the same 'found image' with a felt tip pen on PVC
panels by way of speculating on the manner in which we create such politics.
In her exhibition Happy Pills, in Gallery 3, Kathy Tsangaridis uses large format digital prints
to critique the way drugs are all too willingly prescribed by doctors and promoted by
pharmaceutical companies as the answer to all human woe.
Natalie Shields installation in Gallery 4, is an addition to her continuing work Fantastic
Plastic World. Game will establish a new synthetic environment containing 8 origami based
animals, constructed from vinyl adhesive and a series of 14 screen printed, fabric panels.
All exhibitions continue until Sunday 11 May.
Gallery hours are Tuesday - Sunday 1.00pm - 6.00pm.
