Project Contemporary Artspace

Do you see what I see?
IAVA artists share their unique ways of seeing.

What is it you see? How do you see this, and how do you portray your narrative visually?

The artist is forever challenged by ‘what’ and ‘how’. Welcome to the world of art where you, the audience, are able to see and engage with a breadth of representation, inspiration gleaned from historical and contemporary times… it is the art of now!

The latest exhibition by Illawarra Association for the Visual Artists (IAVA) titled ‘Ways of Seeing’ brings together twenty-one local artists celebrating creativity, at Project Contemporary Artspace. Since its inception in 2010, IAVA members have created a wealth of artworks displayed across the Illawarra region and beyond.

One of their first exhibitions was at Project Contemporary Artspace in 2011. So, 14 years later many original members plus newer members are here to share their love of their art practice. Painting, drawing, printmaking, collage, sculpture, photography and multimedia are practices that engage these artists.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see these dynamic works by Illawarra artists, who are always proud to share ideas that stimulate the audience and create a conversation. Come along and share their visions, delve into their world and be taken on a journey of ‘seeing.

Participating artists: Sue Bessell, Paola Birac, Judy Bourke, Jack Draper, Alannah Dreise, Margaret Dubowski, Gail Etheredge, Wendy Fogarty, Joan Harvey, Karen Heffernan, Sabina Hyung-Ran Choi, Lynne Johns, Liz Jeneid, Kathy Karas, Moira Kirkwood, Susan McAlister, Lilybeth Mayhew, Deborah Redwood, Lara Seresin, Mary Wingrave, Salwa Woodroffe
