  A Fine Line & My Secret Garden

  9 Aug - 29 Sep 2018
  Lillian Rock

  The expression ‘to walk a fine line’ can mean "to achieve or maintain a balance" or "to be very close to two different ideas or attitudes at the same time". (more)

  The expression ‘to walk a fine line’ can mean "to achieve or maintain a balance" or "to be very close to two different ideas or attitudes at the same time". Sometimes in life there is a ‘line’ we cross unknowingly, and in the making of artwork we often make a fine line in the process of drawing, painting, or sculpture.

  A line in art can express anything the artist wishes it to; with mark making in printmaking, drawing or painting the line is often used to express the ultimate in light and dark. Out of many themes the artists who exhibit at Blue Knob Hall Gallery have been given, this one takes in all the aspects that can found in a work of art whether in 3D, 2D.

  My Secret Garden – Heather Kimber – The Solo Space - Heather Kimber is a ceramic artist who is the guiding force behind the Blue Knob Ceramic Studio. After many years of volunteering at Blue Knob Hall Gallery she has been producing her own wonderful ceramic work and it is a long awaited solo show.

  Thurs & Fri: 10am-3pm; Sat: 8:30am-3pm; Sun: 10am-3pm

  Albert (Digby) Moran was born in Ballina and raised on Cabbage Tree Island. His father was Dungutti and his mother Bundjalung. He is a highly respected member of the Lismore/Ballina community and one of the region’s most highly regarded artists.

  Moran’s life is divided into two parts, before he started painting, and after. He worked in agriculture and even as a boxer before he turned his hand to painting. In 1991 he undertook an art course through TAFE which launched his career as an artist. Painting provided a vehicle to express his stories with a strong focus on his time at Cabbage Tree Island. He says, “Those were my happiest years growing up there”. As a story teller, Moran accesses traditions passed on to him by his paternal grandfather, using this as his inspiration to paint and express his Bundjalung heritage.

  This exhibition is the result of a burst of creativity Moran has undergone since the floods, and will be a true celebration of an artist with undeterred resilience.

  By employing the figure as a map to human experiences, I find an endless source of inspiration connecting; place, time, memory and history. Clay offers an insight into deeper physiological elements of human conditions leading me to compositions that allow for the re-evaluation of perceptions.

  The searing, multi award-winning new drama from Andrey Zvyagintsev, arguably the most fearless and vital filmmaker in modern European cinema, 'Loveless' is a razor-sharp and gripping portrayal of a family – and society – on the precipice of collapse. Boris (Alexey Rozin) and Zhenya (Maryana Spivak) live together in the same Moscow apartment, but their relationship is all but over. Caught in a spiral of slanging matches and eager to be freed into the company of new lovers, the only thing keeping them together is the still-to-be-finalised sale of their apartment. What this means for their 12-year-old son, Alyosha (Matvey Novikov), doesn’t seem to be of primary concern. But when he doesn’t return home one night, the couple are confronted by ambivalent and resource-strained authorities, and must mount their own independent search… One that forces them to confront their fears, past actions and complacency.
