Exhibition – Artisan Jewellery

Once again I’m excited to be joining John Carozza’s Exhibition ‘Deepstaria’ as a guest artist at Gallery 61, Musk Avenue Kelvin Grove in 2021.

John’s evocative paintings conjure the mysterious ocean depths that contain the breathtakingly magical Deepstaria jellyfish, from where the title of his exhibition is drawn. This year in a departure from sculpture, I will be showing a small collection of hand formed copper jewellery. You can Purchase some pieces online at Canasta Gallery.

Water and Metal are elemental forms in Chinese Philosophy Wu Xing, and in their regenerative cycle Metal begets, or contains, Water, so I’m taking that as a synergy between mediums. Its always a great night of music and connection, so would love you to pop in and join us next Saturday night from 6:30 pm x

Australian artist Tanja Stark explores the themes of Suburban Gothic and the Sublime Divine through mixed media and photography, installation, painting and sculpture. Creating work through clay, paperbark, copper and wood, her iconic imagery takes archetypal forms both familiar and unique often centred around electric stove spiral elements and organic vessels. Born in Mackay, now working from a bush studio outside of Brisbane, she is interested in the relationship between personal and collective trauma, healing and creative expression, with an emphasis on spiritual and psychological ideas in contemporary society. She has exhibited and presented across Australia and overseas, together with professional experience in therapeutic counselling and research. She has a B.S.W from University of Queensland and published academic pieces on arts, mental health, trauma Bowie and Jungian themes with Routledge and Bloomsbury Academic Press.
