Pop Up Gallery – room 1
Quirky Pots by Helen Parry
Helen’s ceramic works are quirky and highly decorative. She likes to play with distorted forms, wild colour and intensive pattern work to decorate hand build sculptural forms. These highly worked ornamental pieces require three firings to create the layers of colour and pattern that cover them.
Pop Up Gallery – room 2
Home Studies by Artists Anne Sparrow, Diana Henderson and Jasmine Peart
Home Studies brings together Anne Sparrow’s handmade gnomes, Diana Henderson’s embroidered floral photography, and Jasmine Peart’s watercolours and architectural line work, examining home as a specimen: bloom, shelter, memory, and detail, each contributing to an enduring mythology of home.
Pop Up Gallery – room 3
Albany’s Natural World by Annie Johnson and Sue Noakes
Annie and Sue explore the quiet dialogue between life and landscape, and the pulse of the natural world that hums beneath every petal, branch and breath in their paintings and 3D artworks. Through light, texture and colour they aim to reveal the extraordinary within the ordinary such as a leaf’s luminous edge and the unspoken conversation between earth and creature. They want to honour the beauty, fragility and resilience of the natural world and notice that we too are part of this intricate web of life.
Pop Up Gallery – room 4
Stitching the Page by Terri Pikora
Stitching the Page brings together a mix of painting and collage works on paper where hand stitching is centre to Terri’s creative process.
