5 - 21 October, 2023 Gallery hours: Thurs - Sat, 11am - 4pm m: 0448 572 552 Meet-the-Artist: Thurs - Sat, 12.30pm - 4pm ABOUT THE SHOW My abstract arts practice takes its inspiration from the colours, patterns and textures that surround us in our highly constructed, paved-over, urban environments. I mix industrial & manufactured materials directly into the paint for absolute authenticity to those gritty surrounds, searching for a new kind of visual music, a different perspective on the traces of our humanity. Do come and join me. I look forward to seeing you there. Sharmila

The annual Side Gallery's end-of-year show is titled ‘Burn’ for this year's iteration, which will run from December 1 — 17, 2022. The word Burn elicits subjective definitions and associations for the artists involved; to burn, to light fire, climate change, heat, colour, pain, repair, to seal or cauterise, thus heal, to long for, to ignite, scorch, char, to burn out, burn bright, burn the candle at both ends. Artists find a personal significance through a common term and produce a range of dynamic, 2D, 3D and video works that connect to the sizzling concept.
