| "Less is More"
‘Less is More’ in the Main Gallery and ‘Time’s Almost Up’ by Amelia de Zwart in The Solo Space will be the two new exhibitions opening in August.
‘Less is More’
The artwork for ‘Less is More’ has been a great surprise and astounding in its beauty, size, depth and variety. One can’t go past ‘Joanna the Goanna’, the 2.6 mtr mosaic by artists Jane Foundling and Jack Horner. She climbs our wall and has that ‘look’ (I’m watching you!), that is so familiar to us all when a surprised Goanna runs up the nearest tree.
It has been a delight to have artists who are exhibiting at Blue Knob for the first time, and we welcome them all. Jacinta Dignan’s white on black work ‘Coherence’ is the epitome of ‘Less’ and Jasmine McHenry’s ‘A Glad of Mermaids’ has us thinking ‘More’ of those please. The artists have covered a multitude of ideas, from some of the big issues affecting our planet to the smallest details of our lives, wants and needs.
