final week

This coming week will be the last chance to see my solo exhibition Domestic Duties Chp.2 A burden shared is a burden halved.  Sunday 24th June, 2012 at Studio 4 Gallery.  Incorporating an interactive component has truely been an enriching experience for me, the joy in seeing people participating and 'feeling' apart of the show has been wonderful!  And it was lovely to see folk come in and find their word they added to the collective.

I thought I'd share a few of my favourite pieces for the folk that are unable to come to the exhibition...

Dish Pan Hands - vintage glove hangers, latex free gloves & carved words on porcelain pegs.



Constant Appetitie Bottomless Pit - hand carved vintage rolling pin.


Tea Cup & Doily Saucer (12 Sets each) - etched word on Southern Ice Porcelain, various sizes, (each Tea Cup sits on a doily saucer even though the one on the right is not displayed on one).


Icing on the Cake - brass piping cones, metal limbs mounted on hardwood and plexiglass.


Icing on the Cake - detail.



Bad Hair Day I, II & III - old wooden Horsehair and Boar bristle dustpan brushes, metal limbs & porcelain flowers.



Bad Hair Day II - detail. (sold)


This Is Not A Vacuum Cleaner - vintage iron, protruding metal spears & wooden handles.


A big thank you to everyone that arranged to see me personally and my show, it has been a highlight spending quality time with you all. I will make myself available again, if anyone else wishes to have a one on one next week, and I will be in the gallery the last day Sunday 24th June from 1pm onwards.

    1. Hi Robyn, I have so many favourites in this exhibit - I'd have to say the iron is my all time favourite though.

  3. Thanks for sharing these Kim as we haven't been up to doing much more than the basics lately. They all bring a sense of whimsy to the ongoing drudgery, so I'm sure a lot of people enjoyed those moments of lightness.
