Rod Moss - Mirror
Elisabeth Weissensteiner - Fragments and Dances

Opening Wednesday 20 July 6pm
Artist Talk 23 July 2.30pm
RSVP by 13 July .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
Exhibition Until 24 August 2011

Rod Moss
Rod Moss continues his story as a whitefella living in a remote Aboriginal town camp on the edge of Alice Springs. His distinctive subjects, both white and Aboriginal, interact with each other and the landscape to create striking incidental scenes. These include real life scenarios, such as elders playing traditional music or a child watching a group of dogs, and imagined, such as a surreal scene of girl handing a ball to a giant colourful bird. Moss’ new series utilizes his highly developed palette of oranges and dark blues to depict the harsh landscape of outback Central Australia and its inhabitants.

Elisabeth Weissensteiner
Elisabeth Weissensteiner’s new installation explores our continuous dance through time and space. Some taller than life-sized forms leap and skip through the gallery space, sculpted from fiberglass and brightly coloured polyester resin using a technique the artist has spent over eight years developing. Additionally, Weissensteiner presents a new video projection of black and white slowly moving images, which continue to explore the theme of fragments. Together the exhibition’s elements remind us that everything we perceive in our life is just a fragment of a larger whole. The places we inhabit, the people we meet, the things we are surrounded by, become part of a dance as we attempt to remain upright on this spinning ball of earth.
