“4 DEGREES OF CONNECTION” - AN EXHIBITION OF PAINTINGS, CERAMICS AND PHOTOGRAPHIC WORKS BY 4 BRISBANE ARTISTS.
Art Factory Gallery, South Brisbane.
Opening 24/7/2009 continuing to 29/7/2009.

Brisbane has grown from a “Big Country Town” to a thriving Metropolis, but the people of this city have not lost their inter-connectedness. Playing on the “6 Degrees of Separation” theory “4 Degrees of Connection” connects the viewer to a deep sense of history, belonging and place.

4 diverse local artists showcase a cross-section of Brisbane’s multi-talented arts scene that has developed in our “Big Country Town”.

The exhibition examines these artist’s connections to history, nature and each other that adds to their sense of place and identity.

• Pam Gough brings a sense of history with her cityscapes & scenes highlighting our unique Queenslander homes.
• Michelle Bowden shows off the wild places on our doorstep.
• Irene Brown adds feelings of serenity and peace with her delicate ceramics.
• Kirsten Dale Cutler’s work evokes an emotional response to the environment.

Through sharing stories and discovering random connections we can feel that our links to history and nature have not been lost as long as we hold them as precious and as a special part of our identity. Brisbane has grown-up, but is holding onto her unique character and that is shown in this exhibition.

The exhibition opens on 24th of July 2009 6pm – 9pm for drinks with the artists ,
at the Art Factory Gallery, 84 Merivale St, South Brisbane, and continues until 29th of July.
