Group Exhibition “Rusted On”

Online Group Exhibition is on NOW!

Rusted on gallery 5
Group Exhibition, “RUSTED ON” looks really nice! it is a showcase of Primrose Paper Arts Inc. members’ new work. The online exhibition is on now and my work is included in Gallery 5.
“Wabi-Sabi Polyhedron Lampshade”: Rust can be translated into the Japanese word ‘Sabi’. The same pronunciation Sabi, from Wabi-Sabi, means Japan’s unique concept of beauty. Nothing lasts forever. I created a lampshade with the pages from an old torn book written by Charles Dickens.
The exhibition was created by Claire Brach.

Mental Health Awareness, “Lost Bird Found” Project

Lost Bird Found Project in November

lost bird project 2

I created some hand-made birds for the Lost Bird Found Project which is to raise awareness and spark conversations about mental health.
Would you like to participate in the program with me? Let’s create your own birds and hide them for others to find and keep. It will be better with more participants! Birds are a symbol of freedom, hope and wisdom. For more info, please check North Sydney Council’s website.

I made a video with my bird. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb_ecAJykZc

It was rained again. But inside the exhibition space was filled with laughter and happiness.
We exhibited our own works and painted near the tables, talked and demonstrated our skills and learnt a lot.
Thank you for sharing a wonderful rainy weekend!

New venue for the “Virgin Vessels”

Group exhibition continues at North Sydney Council Chamber

When we were restricted to our homes, it was time for me to clean up in my studio.
Most of my schedule of the workshops, demonstrations and exhibitions were cancelled or postponed, I have plenty of time to relax and do my own projects.

One side is closed, then the other opportunity has arrived. 25 members of the Primrose Paper Art group were given the space to exhibit the collaboration work at Project 2060: Home Ward Bound at Coal Loader Centre, North Sydney. 25 of us had learnt to make vessels using paper handmade from recycled paper. The project was great for all the paper artists with all levels of expertise and who work in a variety of mediums, to learn a new form of paper expression.
It was a fun project & a big exhibition. (The report and photo was in my blog on March 2021)

After that, we moved to a new venue at InTransit Art Space, North Sydney Council Chambers
1st Floor, 200 Miller Street, North Sydney till 19 July 2021.
Open 9am-5pm, Mon-Friday

Group Exhibition “Home ward Bound”

North Sydney Council’s group exhibition

Paper Vessels

The collaborative installation by Primrose Paper Arts. Each vessel symbolises the affirmative process of finding and holding value and the discarding of the unneeded.

I’ve ran the origami workshop during the exhibition and it was really fun!

You are not Alone

My new work, Thinking of You 1 & 2

Thinking of You 2

“Thinking of You 1 & 2”
94 x 94cm each
Mixed media on canvas, framed

We have lost our freedom to travel because of the Corona pandemic at the moment. We can still talk on the phone, we can see each other on the monitor srteens, but I still feel the distance.

We can’t touch, smell or feel the warmth of other people through machines.

I created the artwork while thinking of someone who lived far away and wish for them a happy and healthy life.
You are not alone.
