THE MYTH OF HER Exhibition by Alexis Costello 12-18 October. Drinks with the artist Thursday 15th 6pm. Artists talk Saturday 4-6pm

Alexis lives in Bondi, Sydney and is mum to two girls.
After studying drama in London and performing on stage and
in film she travelled Italy for several months falling deeply in
love with the culture, language and art.
In her paintings, Alexis explores the complexities of being
a woman and a mother, drawing influence from Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo
and Turkish painter Hulya Ozdemir amongst others.
Using bright, bold acrylic colours on large-scale canvases,
she examines themes of postnatal depression, and the relentless
demands of mothering that coincide with the intensely profound love
we feel for our children.
Her exhibition, Burning of the Woman, although explicit with
themes of motherhood also explores femininity in greater depth.
It’s a celebration of what it is to be inside a woman’s body,
exploring sensuality, romantic love, friendship and relationship with
self.

Benjamin Hogarth -You “Betta” Work – 20-26 October. Official function Wednesday 22nd at 6pm.

Benjamin Hogarth – You Betta Work

About me:

Hi, my name is Benny and I’m a 29 year old emerging artist, who lives in Surryhills, Sydney.

From a very young age I was always intrigued and fascinated with art. I would always sketch on a piece of paper or within a book. It wasn’t really until I hit high school that my passion really grew and evolved. Visual arts was always my favourite class, I took my art book to and from school most days showing my teacher what I had created the night before. One thing my art teacher had always said ‘you really should continue this after school, you have the knack for it, you’re passionate and it’s something you enjoy’. Now, in my adult life, it’s something that I do most days, whether it’s drawing or painting or even thinking about different concepts for new art works.

Exhibition

Title: You ‘Betta’ Work.

Betta Splendens or commonly known as the Siamese Fighting Fish are native to Thailand. These fish can typically reside in shallow pools, rice paddies and shallow moving streams. The Betta fish have a very special labyrinth organ that allows them to breathe atmospheric air directly from the waters surface. Because of this Betta fish can live in thrive in different environments and adapt to their conditions. Later after the species were found they were renamed to their commonly known name now “Betta Spelendens’ which roughly translate to ‘beautiful warrior’. For the last 2 years, I have been working to create a collection of art works which focus on the beautiful details of Betta Fish whilst being dedicated to my full time career, gym training, maintaining a social life, going on adventures and just living in the moment. This time has shown me that everyone can adapt to the environment they are placed in, where they can thrive and flourish in their own way, to which everything turns out beautiful in the end.
