John Mullins Memorial Art Gallery
Heimlich Unheimlich
By Sieglinde Karl-Spence and Hazel Smith
This exhibition is an installation of collages and poetry, video, and handstitched objects created by artist Sieglinde Karl-Spence and writer Hazel Smith. The artists draw on their contrasting childhoods (German-Australian and British-Jewish) in photographs from their family albums to weave a story about the characters Muslin and Hessian. The story unfolds on delicate chiffon hangings and explores the post-Second World War period, personal and intergenerational trauma, belonging and migration.

ON THE CURVED WALL
Different Strokes
By Miles Art Group
Different Strokes is a collection of work created by local artists who are members of the Miles Art Group. It is a celebration of the many genres, mediums, and personalities that grace the monthly meet ups.
The exhibition is a diverse response to personal stimuli, from artists who create individually and as part of the Miles Art Group. This translates to a collective, inspiring each other in their chosen practise through encouragement and constructive feedback, sharing knowledge, and the lessons of experience.
Participating Artists: Sarah Davis, Patricia Hinz, Bernice Lakay, Shirley Makin, Anna Moeba, Chris Osborne, Bill Perry, Donna Rivers, Juliana Stiller, Lillian Stiller, Lisa Stiller
