Buoys will be Buoys by Hannah Cutts is an exhibition that brings together many elements of art, craft, typography, satire and the found object. Many of the works are neon and Hannah works alongside neon sign artisan Michael Blazek. This marks the fifth exhibition over a decade that Hannah and Michael have joined forces to create artworks of neon light. Hannah then reconfigures the emotional connection of the typography and colour in each object so that alternate meanings are conveyed. Her work will then lead the direction for traditionally trained neon glass blower, Michael Blazek, to bend the neon pipe and capture the glowing beauty. The exhibition also features works that have been created using letterpress thanks to Clint Harvey, the letterpress wizard at the Bacon Factory in Brisbane. Works have been created using many found objects such as vintage linoleum, fishing floats, surfboard fins and more. What we have left is nothing short of a modern nostalgic trip and glowing sensory experience with a dab of fun.

Red Flowers ,. In an increasingly digital world, paper is often seen as: a utilitarian material to use and convey information, a tactile object in the form of a book or publication, something that can be easily discarded, or an artifact that captures a moment in time. These five artists: Simone Esterhuizen, Melanie Lineham, Lee McKenna, Diana Miller and Sabine Pick, are all bound together by the common thread of using paper in their collage based work and art practice. The Tearaways references the ways in which each artist uses paper in both its archival and disposable form and the analog nature of collage itself. Melbourne based collage and mixed media artist Simone Esterhuizen pays homage to the photographers, models and graphic artists whose work lies in discarded source material found in used bookstores, digital marketplaces and garage sales. Objects are sliced, torn, concealed or revealed to create new images with a sense of off-kilter familiarity.
