Where is the news?

It seems that these days news happens in the moment on social media, which none of us can control. The news here has been neglected but much happens and this space is here to stay! 

After being involved in, sometimes curating, and installing group exhibitions such as - Festival of the Owl, Kank Wolverang Records, Ballarat, ALTOLOGY, Gallery 10, Ballarat, Tool, Kank, the annual One Star curated exhibitions, Naarm, Bootleg & Thigh, CASPA, Castlemaine with Petra Rodgers/Lowly Painter, and annual 100 faces, Talbot in 2024 and 2025 - myself and three artist friends held a great fun and successful exhibition at One Star Gallery in August 2025, Ate Hours + 32 Years. We hope the four us us will collaborate further after living and working around each other since our university years. Working with friends is the best. Also with artist friend Belinda Michael I was fortunate to be included in the Infuse Art prize at Ross Creek in late 2024!

Next an inclusion in One Star Gallery's annual group exhibition curated by Katy Beale and Mariella Del Conte.

'As Above, So Below'

Quote from Katy and Mariella:

"We are pleased to announce our 7th group exhibition as co-curators centred around the profound phrase:

As within so without, as above so below, as the universe so the soul… 

from the ancient hermetic document known as the Emerald Tablet.
The phrase encapsulates a perceived interconnectedness of microcosm and macrocosm, the celestial and the terrestrial,  cosmic and material. 
Another translation reads ..….that which is above is like to that which is below and that which is below is like to that which is above….

In the words of Alan Watts “..that different things can be inseparable, that what is explicitly two, at the same time can be implicitly one..”

This is a rare moment when one of my works will be on display in the same gallery with my sister, the painter, Heidi Yardley!

Open hours: Thur-Fri 3-7,pm Sat 1-7pm, Sun 1-5pm.
