EVENTIDE - an After Noon event at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery

Here are a few snapshots, all of them taken by my partner Shane Jones, of yesterday’s After Noon event at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery. They feature Rona Green, Euan Heng and I conversing about the current relief printmaking exhibition/print exchange, Eventide.

So many people attended and we extend our warm thanks to all of you. Your engagement and enthusiasm helped make the afternoon an utter pleasure. It was great to talk with several of you individually after the event.

Thanks also to Jane German, Public Programs and Marketing Coordinator, and all the MPRG staff who made us so welcome and ensured that everything ran so seamlessly.

Finally, a huge thank you to Eventide curator and exhibiting artist Rona Green for conceiving and curating the wonderful show that is Eventide and for inviting me to be part of it.

Eventide concludes on 3 July.

Floor talk at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery

Pictured above is The Story of the Moth Masks, a mini-zine made in celebration of the group exhibition Eventide at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery. The cover girl is Cossodes lyonetii Moth Woman,the linocut I created for the show. Copies of the zine are also available at the gallery.

Eventide was curated by Rona Green. This coming Sunday, 26 June, between 2 - 3 pm, Rona, Euan Heng and I are presenting an informal floor talk at MPRG about our contributions to Eventide, ‘the magical moment when day meets night'. We’d love to see you there.

For those who can’t make the talk, but plan to visit the show, Eventide concludes on 3 July.
