Sew Angry

Nicole Kemp
7–30 June, Gallery Two

Through a series of hand and machine-stitched images, Nicole Kemp presents a bold expression reflecting her passion for the universal themes of social justice and equality, The work, on initial viewing, appears pleasant and delightful, but on closer inspection, there are meanings pushing to be uncovered.

The Upcycling Era

Presented by the Rotary Club of Caulfield
4–28 July, Gallery Two

This exhibition displays the creativity and skill of artists in upcycling reusable items traditionally sent to landfill to create artworks in ceramics, clothing, furniture, mosaics, paintings and wall hangings.

Exploring themes of recycling and reusing, the exhibition uses upcycling items to inspire everyone to undertake their own upcycling before sending things to landfill.
