Venue Name	Rockingham Arts Centre
Venue Address	11 Kent Street Rockingham 6168 Australia
Description	If you like art with a difference then feel free to come along and view this exciting debut solo exhibition by Shoalwater artist Yvonne Stuurstraat. Whether it be the detail in an eagle's wing or the serenity of a pelican atop the waters off Shoalwater beach or perhaps the vibrant colours of an abstract flame in the forest of our wondrous south-west, this multi-media display has it all. Yvonne's unique style has developed over the last 44 years culminating in her debut exhibition from November 24 to December 5. She has always loved her art interests but the priorities of raising three children and running a business with her husband of 36 years meant putting her art endeavours on the back burner. Now she is finally able to devote a lot more time to her art. Yvonne has dedicated this exhibition to her life-long friend Tanya, who sadly passed away in 2014. The exhibition is at the Rockingham Arts Centre in Kent Street and entry is free.

Kristen Brownfield @ SHOPFRONT GALLERY

Event Title: Teeter
Participating Artists: Kristen Brownfield

Venue: SHOPFRONT GALLERY,
149 Beaufort St, Northbridge

Description: Teeter is an installation that will be made in response to the
SHOPFRONT GALLERY. Working from a palette of up-cycled objects and studio
remnants, Kristen will create a three-dimensional drawing in the space that
suggests the extension of the making process from studio to the gallery
site. Precarious and unfixed, the work seeks to emphasize the ephemeral
relations between object, space and the viewer.

During a studio residency at ECU, Kristen has been occupied with material
investigations and the reconfiguration of found objects. Through assemblage,
she has explored ways to construct a dialogue between a range of materials
and architectural space, considering small interventions and countless
potential arrangements. As her first solo show, Teeter can be seen as one
rendition specific to the SHOPFRONT GALLERY.

Kristen Brownfield (born 1992) is an emerging Perth artist working across
collage, painting, assemblage and installation and artist-books. Since
completing her BA last year, she has undergone a studio placement at Paper
Mountain ARI (Northbridge) and Edith Cowan University, Mt Lawley (current).

Event Title: Left To My Own Devices, Sarah Thornton-Smith.
Participating Artists: Sarah Thornton-Smith.

Venue: Mundaring Arts Centre,
7190 Great Eastern Highway (corner Nichol Street) Mundaring

Description: Sarah Thornton-Smith's first solo exhibition "Left to my Own
Devices" is a conversation in colour, meticulously constructed out of paper,
soft woods and metal foils rendered in gouache. Small in nature, delicate
and ephemeral, the works echo some of Thornton-Smith's intimate experiences
and memories such as when she moved to WA from Singapore as a teen. Struck
by the harshness of light compared to light bound by tropical lushness,
Sarah's lifelong fascination with colour intensified. Sarah's work is
infused with ideas of landscape and explores the relationship that develops
between colour, form, structure and light.

Dates: 20 August 2016 to 25 September 2016.
Opening Times: Tuesday-Friday 10am-5pm, Saturday-Sunday 11am-3pm, closed

Description:   Rogers is bringing her exhibition home after first showing it in Budapest, Hungary during January 2016.  She has condensed her Western Australian existence to the size of a suitcase, carrying pictorial representations of her family life, happiness, fears and some images of her surroundings in Perth. Personal story or mundane moments of the artist's life are granted status and brought forth for the viewer's reconsideration? It is up to the Western Australian audience to decide.

First showing in Collie Art Gallery in the winter of 2016, and then during February 2017 in Mandurah Performing Art Centre.  Floor and wall installations of mixed media works on wood panel.  Rogers is excited to be sharing her secrets in two workshops being held during the exhibition. Participants will get up close and personal with a mirror to learn the principles and techniques of life-like portraiture in two three-hour workshops, one aimed at beginners and one for more advanced artists.

Basic workshop: 2-5pm, Saturday 23 July
Advanced workshop: 2-5pm, Saturday September 3.

Dates: 22 July 2016 to 03 September 2016.
Opening Times: Thursday – Monday 10am – 4pm.

toilet blocks and car parks.

completed a Bachelor in Fine Arts at the University of Western Australia in
2012 with a focus on painting, film, and multi-media installation. While

Jenn Garland @ Free range gallery

Event Title: Date with disaster
Participating Artists: Jenn Garland

Venue: Free range gallery,
339 Wellington St, Perth WA 6000.

Description: DATE WITH DISASTER, a solo exhibition by Jenn Garland, explores
our fascination with havoc. Sculptural works, painting and photography
simulate a landscape where the artificial has declined into the chaos of
nature. Here human construction and interventions are seemingly reabsorbed
into the environment. Inspired by the materiality and forms of
post-industrial ruins, DATE WITH DISASTER investigates "ruin porn" and
apocalypse as popular Internet tropes. Combining the language of
advertising and social media with the aesthetics of decay, Garland
contemplates the ways we consume images of disaster. She questions whether
our interest in ruination is as a symbol of impermanence, evidence of
Modernism's fading Utopian dream, or stems from something darker.

Dates: 02/06/2016 to 07/06/2016.
Opening Times: OPENING- Thursday June 2nd, 6-8pm; CONTINUES -Till late on
Friday 3rd 11am- 7:00pm; Saturday 4th - Tuesday 7th 11am-5:00pm.

they contrast with reality.

As part of an installation in 'Improbable Returns', Christopher requests
that visitors to the opening night event bring a small bundle of newspapers
with them. These will be installed throughout the opening.

'Improbable Returns' opens on Friday, 4 March 2016 from 6pm. Join the

birthday, she still delights in the freedom of the brush stroke and the
adventure of discovering a new image each day. This exhibition is a true
celebration - not only of Smith's 100th Birthday but also of life and of
having the courage to unleash the creative power we all have within us - at
any age.
