Audacious
Please join us for AUDACIOUS, where longtime colleagues Shona Rae & Barb Temple create work rooted in life, death and the messy business of growing up. By reclaiming discarded, once-loved objects, they transform the overlooked into vessels of critique, reflection and resilience. From Rae’s decorative tins reimagined as landscapes to Temple’s shadow boxes of rescued baby dolls, Audacious invites viewers to reconsider what is forgotten - and see existence itself as fragile, unpredictable, and worthy of attention. With 45 pieces of art to discover you may want to stay awhile!
