Neapolitan

Barbara Niczynski

Barb's art is generally about the internal journeys of the body, mind, spirit and soul and how this effects our physicality, spirituality and mentality. Working in her studio, using a magnifying glass for fine detail, she makes detailed mechanical, a little bit steam punk, industrial small drawings to explore an idea or concept. Photographing museum objects, old and new machinery, building sites, people, tunnels, rocks, trees"¦. anything that catches her eye provides her with inspiration. Barb sells her small pen and watercolour as high resolution giclee prints, paintings as originals and has won prizes two prizes since exhibiting at various galleries since 2016.

This offering" Zero to Nine" has a different look to her usual work, and examines geometry, numbers, nature, relationships and some fun stuff too, using the circle as a starting point, dividing it to increase its numerical value through to nine.

Marcelien Hunt

Art has the power to make changes in an individual's thinking, Marcelien offers such narratives to the participant. From personal experiences, the viewer can then form their own interpretations.

From the techniques of the early Flemish, French and Renaissance painters, her art is not meant to be pretty, but thoughtful and founded in her Christian faith. On the opening afternoon, performances on the harpsichord modelled on a 1700's instrument, showcases an example of Marcelien's soundboard paintings found in Australia and Europe. Her current works are social and political observations of everyday people doing everyday things including tongue-in-cheek experiences.

Marcelien's art moves from realism to abstraction including monochrome underpainting, and layer upon layer of paint glazing. She 'plays' in her private studio. Marcelien has participated in numerous exhibitions, including the Art for Excellence and FOBFTA Annual Art Exhibition.
