Off the Edge
Wednesday 8 July - Saturday 18 July 2009
This ceramics exhibition celebrates the diversity, creativity and talent of artists with a disability.
An array of ceramic works will be on display, giving audiences an intriguing glimpse into the artists' imaginative world through the medium of clay.
Liam Bruce's Bath Man depicts a figure looking hopefully at his orange bath; Alan Constable's Green SLR is a delightful rendering of a camera; and Jarrod Wendt's Scorpion Bug is a surreal fusion of car and insect.
The exhibition also features works by Chris Mason, Jodie Noble, Jennifer Collier, Anne Kwasner, Honey Crawford, Fiona Bell, Clairy Lawrence, Michael Williamson, Saki Yamaoka, Liz Duffy, Isaac Patmore, Cheryl Baker, Clarice Collien, John Goldsmith, Les Hough, Zion Stewart, Liz Cashmore, Kristina Tito, Suvira MacDonald and Kevin Meagher.
The exhibition's opening night will be held on Thursday 9 July from 6pm-8pm. The gallery is wheelchair accessible.
Off the Edge forms part of the Australian Ceramics Triennale, which will be held in Sydney from Thursday 16-Monday 20 July. The conference will discuss disabilities and ceramic art, as well as other issues concerning ceramic artists.
