PAT BRASSINGTON is featured in the exhibition, Seeing Things, opening today at Wollongong Art Gallery.
Curated by Daniel Mudie Cunningham, this is an exhibition showcasing works from their collection that offer disquieting narratives of everyday life as a waking dream, a vantage point for seeing with eyes closed.
Pat’s pink work, Purr (2005) is included. "It’s not my intention to feminise the image by using pink. It's 'nastier' than that. Pink smothers,” says the artist.
Seeing Things continues until 3 August.

ANNE ZAHALKA - Finalist in Meroogal Women's Art Prize
Anne Zahalka's Forget me not (2024) is a finalist in the Meroogal Women’s Art Prize, currently on display at Meroogal in Nowra, NSW.
This album, its frontispiece emblazoned with the words ‘Forget me not’, is usually stored in a sideboard at Meroogal. The pages in the album were once occupied by family photographs. These now vacant pages represent the missing people who lived in the house. Their absence now haunts our encounter, and we can only imagine the portraits this Victorian-era album once held. Displaying this ‘hidden’ collection item as an artwork draws attention to the power of objects to invoke memory and imagination.
The Meroogal Women’s Art Prize is a regional, non-acquisitive competition and exhibition. Women artists from across NSW were invited to submit works, in any medium, that respond to the historic house of Meroogal, its former occupants, and its meaning within broader historical and contemporary contexts.
Visit Forget me not at Meroogal, until the exhibition closes on 24 May 2025.

LYNDELL BROWN & CHARLES GREEN featured in exhibition 'Art of Peace' at the AGWA
Lyndell Brown & Charles Green were recently invited to present their artworks in a symposium featuring nine acclaimed artists from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda, and Timor-Leste—countries that have faced unimaginable horrors yet demonstrate the resilience of the human spirit through art.
At Curtin University last month they joined their peers in the ‘Art of Peace’ Symposium, in a two-day event exploring the transformative power of art in post-conflict societies. This symposium accompanies the exhibition Art of Peace: Art After War at the Art Gallery of Western Australia, which runs until 29 June 2025.
In 2007, Brown & Green were Australia’s Official War Artists, deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq. Their artworks record the activities and experiences of the Australian troops. They are contemplative works that reveal new and strange configurations of landscape, culture, and technology.
CYRUS TANG - Crystaline Echoes
ARC ONE is thrilled to be presenting Crystalline Echoes, a new body of work by Cyrus Tang. In a return to sculpture, this exhibition showcases a series of metallic sculptures, folded like paper airplanes or emerging like irregular crystals. Each sculpture features a bright image, blurred so that we can no longer tell what it
represents.
