HOME - Cessnock

Works from the CRAG show HOME that is on at the moment. 














NECK OF THE WOODS

Bellow are works from 'Neck of the Woods' which was a show that has just recently closed at Breathing Colours in Balmain. I showed with the very talented Helen Hay - who makes amazing hand built ceramics and Mark Callaghan who paints with rusts and oxidations.

The works that I showed followed on from my investigations of the idea of home and the memories that it holds.

sculpture in the vinyards

Ryan and I went up to take down the works that I had up there - from a distance they were ok but close up the wood had taken on water and split in some places - So it was a valuable lesson that no matter how many times you prime something water can still get in. It was the first time that I have had something outside this long - so it was good to see how things weathered and to learn what I would do differently for next time. Basically I need to find a material that I am happy to work with and thats ok to leave outside - I guess wood will always weather and need attention so will have to look at other alternatives for future projects.

Anyway here are some pics of the work before we took it down.
