Standing on The Shoulders
“Art doesn’t just spring out of nowhere,” muses Jean Bradbury, a Bowen artist and Hearth Visual Arts Committee member. So then, where does art come from?
“Gallery goers will learn about the artists of Bowen “through why they make art and where inspiration comes from, rather than just looking at the art that they make,” explains Bradbury.
Artists will create the boards at the gallery – small groups will have non-public guided sessions where participants will delve into who taught, inspired and encouraged them; the inspiration for the piece; and sketches, plans, images and research information that led to the finished work. Both are then displayed to the public in the exhibit. Carol McNaugton, Matilda Shapland, Liz Nankin and Jean Bradbury are the co-curators of the exhibition.
