Eight By Two

For the third year in a row at the William Street Gallery in Paddington, a group of Australian artists will be showcasing their work, under the title Eight by Two.

Four Sydney-based artists are coming together to encourage more collaborations between Australian artists. Each artist in this creative partnership has their own unique pieces, which makes for a creative and intriguing display.

These four artists are Carolyn Hunter, Cristina Harris, Angela Robinson and Pauline Plumb.

Hunter’s artwork is inspired by her travels around Australia where in this exhibit she focuses on etching of seedpods and trees. Harris’ work is a reference to Jackson Pollock’s Blue Poles. Robinson’s piece is a series of photographic images to explore the elusiveness of memory through spatial, emotional and political constructs.

Plumb’s exhibit is a continuation of her Transitional Denudation Series, where she comments on the aesthetic relationship and impact that power transmission and distribution has on shifting landscapes. (AMal)
