Pittsworth Perspectives, an exhibition highlighting selected works from the Pittsworth Community Collection, and a children's art activity from the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (The Castle of Tarragindi on Tour) open the 2024 program at Goombungee's Rosalie Gallery.
Pittsworth Perspectives invites viewers to explore the diverse and vibrant expressions contained in the community collection.
Each brushstroke in the works tells a unique story and collectively showcases the rich tapestry of artists who are represented in the Pittsworth Community Collection. This exhibition will be on display until February 4, 2024.
Children and families can participate in fun art-making activities by contemporary Australian artist Natalya Hughes with The Castle of Tarragindi on Tour at Rosalie Gallery until February 4.
Developed in collaboration with the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA), The Castle of Tarragindi on Tour invites audiences to create their own digital hybrid creature, decorate and assemble a 3D object, make elaborate patterns using printed paper, and take part in self-portrait drawing activities.
Hughes creates paintings, textiles, sculptures and installations informed by decorative and ornamental traditions. In The Castle of Tarragindi, the artist has chosen to explore 'grotesque' design, a specific tradition of ornament known for its hybridity.
