Exhibition Description
The
four artists in this exhibition are unified by the idea of protrusion.
In the Red Room, Lynn Kelly’s site-specific felted tree installation
made for the Festival will protrude from the floor and appear to
puncture the ceiling, reappearing in the second floor stairwell. Magda
Wojtyra’s landscape of colourful cones springs out from the wall into a
spiked magical landscape. Robyn Thomas’s magazine hooked Flare spikes
out from the surface. Ying Yueh-Chuang’s solo exhibition in the Roastery
Coffee House features ceramic flowers protruding from her fabric
backgrounds.
