FRONT & BACK GALLERY

ANIMA
By Aida Sabic

Greek mythology embodied the faults and strengths of human nature and it’s narratives veiled the fears, beliefs, and moral codes of their society. The stories were told by men, to motivate men. The female characters represented the feminine characteristics in themselves… to be resisted, subdued or overcome at any cost.
Females were portrayed as weak or were punished harshly for showing dominant traits. This work is based around the female characters in these myths and their relevancy, despite the role of women in ancient society being considered insignificant compared to that of men.

 

 

UPSTAIRS GALLERY

FOR THOSE WHO’VE COME ACROSS THE SEAS
By Molly George

Deeply frustrated and motivated by the issues surrounding Asylum Seekers in Australia, Molly George creates alluring animations to bring the humanity back to these people. By using simple and modest materials, Molly strives to convey thesepoignant and devastating stories, exposing the truth the behind the headlines. These animations seek to humanize ‘boat people’ and give them back an identitybeyond that of a faceless, government statistic.

“This work is for the masses, created to reach those who are overwhelmed with the media, those afraid of change within society, those who are uninformed and those who welcome refugees with open arms. To any new Australian, I hope I have done your incredible stories justice.”
