The Visitors Have Gone....

Our visiting Icehouse artist have left after the succesful opening of their exhibition on Friday 3 July, THE VISITORS, but before leaving they spent a very rewarding afternoon with some of our young helmies!

Saturday 27 June, Anne Brodie and Yael Rosenblut led an eager group of 5 young artists on a journey of discovery, exploring and manipulating scale, composition and collage to produce some beautiful art works.

The group began by collecting specimens from the Timespan garden in transparent bags. The bags and their content were then photocopied and blown up to different degrees. The detailed results were then mixed with found images and further copies of the artists' choice.

The results of the groups activity were then framed within clock faces. Time is a theme that has run through the work Anne and Yael since they have been here, and now the group will have an artwork that will remind them of their time in timespan forever!
