Joy Enever
The diversity and colour in the landscape and natural environment has been a great source of inspiration to this artist. Just as changes occur in the environment and surrounding landscape her style & medium have varied over time, with colour being the continuum. Joy will present a selection of works completed since she arrived in Darwin in 2003.

Bruno and the Beast of Burden
Katie Saunders
Bruno the strong man and the Beast of Burden come together to share the load and carry the weight surrounding the Armenian question whether they can achieve world peace is yet to be seen, but while the Beast bears the weight of history Bruno just might be able to give it the strength to go on.

Leaf Litter
Dawn Beasley
The intention with this body of work is to contrast man made litter against nature’s own discarded leaf litter’ through the combination of found and man-made items against painted and drawn natural forms. On the surface this work is a response to the issue of litter and the impact of waste on the environment, but on another level it intends to symbolize contemporary Australian culture.
