Wayne Attwood: Oils
Attwood's work deals with emotional memory;
particularly the emotions that can be evoked by memory of relationships. Attwood views these works as ‘ghosts of the memory of feeling’. It is the often vagueness of memory or emotion as to why he eschews a literal or ‘realist’ approach,
but leave space for a vague or unresolved interpretation.

Sarah Methuen: Abstract Gold Leaf
This work uses abstract, accidental mark-making techniques with bold, precise application of metal leaf and 24ct gold. I'm exploring the notions of spirituality, healing and humanity through the materiality of mixed media. I create tension between the perfect and imperfect and I am perpetually drawn to surfaces that shine. When the luminosity of a metallic surface meets the eye, our pleasure sensors are activated and energised.
