OPEN NOW - The Mouth of the Beast

6/3/2016

Exhibition opening
Saturday, 4th June, 2pm until 4pm

Please join us for opening drinks at The Mouth of the Beast, an exhibition of bronze sculptures and charcoal drawings by Joelle Mayberry and Tiffany Titshall.

Space 39, level 2, 39 Little Collins Street, Melbourne.

“These images and sculptures are raw. They hide nothing. We are watching, and we are being watched. Open mouths, open vessels, dark and tempting. The emptiness and its accompanying silence allows us to release deeper, carnal responses. We seek our native tongue in the mouth of the beast.” - Caleb Cluff

Exhibition runs 2nd - 15th June 2016. Gallery open daily 11am until 6pm.
For more information or a catalogue preview email tiffanytitshall@gmail.com

'In looks and lips that can no more dissemble'

6/1/2016

In looks and lips that can no more dissemble, 2016

I began exploring seduction, courtship and desire and I landed somewhere between carnal thrills of the flesh and the notion of voyeuristic pleasure. I wanted to see the rituals of seduction and the thrill of the chase, unbridled.

"It’s queer the way we use the word ‘beastly’ as an adjective for the gross and degraded, the sort of thing we rightly call ‘dirty’. To a naturalist such talk sounds strange. Actually, love among nature’s creatures is no mere brutal carnality. It is a thing of a thousand graces. It expresses itself in lovely and amazing gestures of courtship, in deep devotions, in tender ways." - Alan Devoe

"The slit moon only emphasised how blood must flow and teeth must grip"

5/24/2016

SONG FOR A BIRTH OR A DEATH by ©Elizabeth Jennings

Last night I saw the savage world
And heard the blood beat up the stair;
The fox’s bark, the owl’s shrewd pounce,
The crying creatures - all were there,
And men in bed with love and fear

The slit moon only emphasized
How blood must flow and teeth must grip.
What does the calm light understand,
The light which draws the tide and the ship
And drags the owl upon its prey
And human creatures lip to lip?

Last night I watched how pleasure must
Leap from disaster with its will:
The fox’s fear, the watch-dog’s lust
Know that all matings mean a kill:
And human creatures kissed in trust
Feel the blood throb to death until

The seed is struck, the pleasure’s done,
The birds are thronging in the air;
The moon gives way to widespread sun.
Yes but the pain still crouches where
The young fox and the child are trapped
And cries of love and cries of fear

Detail: Love Play, 2016.

“You might as well ask an artist to explain his art, or ask a poet to explain his poem. It defeats the purpose. The meaning is only clear thorough the search.” ― Rick Riordan

Majorca Studio

In the studio and other places.

Tiffany Titshall works in charcoal on paper from her studio in central Victoria. From landscapes and follies to darker, more overt images of animals and devils, her work always simmers with hints of her inner world.
