Heidelberg Theatre Company Arts Space - find me there!

The Heidelberg Theatre Company, as well as putting on a full program of plays also has an Arts Space. I have been asked to put my artwork in this space in time for their next play: 'The Judas Kiss'.

I was a little hesitatant, however, after installing yesterday, I'm quite happy with the result. It does reflect where I am at the moment with paintings, prints and a woven wall hanging.

Thanks Leanne for the invite.

The play starts on the 8th July and finishes on the 24th July. The theatre is at Turnham Avenue, Rosanna.

It's a white board

Yes it is a white board. This is my latest challenge. A friend is curator for the Heidelberg Theatre Company and they're putting on the play 'Don's Party'. An iconic Australian play set on Federal election night in 1969. For the foyer 'exhibition' she's asking artist's to paint a board to reflect this time, and, I'm one of them.

That year was interesting for a number of reasons. I was turning 12 and starting my first year of high school. (Yes, I was a year early, wouldn't recommend it, but don't get me started!) It was also when man first landed on the moon. I don't remember much about starting High school (Williamstown Girls' High) but I do remember the moon landing. We watched it on my girlfriends' portable television, which she brought to school. It was a fabulous moment in time.

However, back to the board. I think I'll just take it one step at a time. First, the background colour. An obvious choice is lime green, pink, mission brown......I'll look through some photos of the time and see....
