with  Reiko Azuma and her work

“Synchronicity - interconnectedness of all things” 3-17 September 2023

Duet Exhibition by Amy Jones and Reiko Azuma.

Our busyness of domestic life, it can be difficult to take a moment to notice one’s surroundings. 

This exhibition attempts to pay homage to the infinite possibilities of the microcosms of our immediate world. 

Together we celebrate the wonderment, boundless hope in the unfathomable.

There is an enormity of hope that can be taken from the micro, and encouragement can be found in the infinite possibilities of the everyday encounter.


Jones and Azuma trust in organic momentum, becoming lost in the process of interacting with light, shadow, colours and lines.

with Amy Jones and her work

This affirms that happiness and creativity is never far from all of us. It can be found in this moment as we strive to practice "appreciation and openness".

White's Creek Catchment in the Rain

-
Checked out White's Creek Catchment in the rain with a few long time residents including an 82 year old who was born at the Private Hospital where the Leichhardt Bolo is and moved to where she lives now when she was 1. She has seen a few changes and people come and go.    Ferris Lane looked fabulous!    The new lintel in Ferris Street seemed to be working well - residents have worked with council to make this happen along with cleaning out nearby drains and gutters.   Evan Jones Playground had a tree down. And a few other trees need mulching.     Water was flowing out of the grate where Styles Street crosses White's Creek and different drivers approached the puddle. The 150 year old salt glazed pipe was still working too!    Photos and Videos at https://www.instagram.com/p/CMvolNkD2Pb/
