The September issue is a collection of original artworks created by Amber Reid and Heather Whybrow. This exhibition is a combination of contemporary takes on Darwin Iconic historical architecture, mixed with vibrant visual imagery that alters the viewer’s state of mind when they are observing an artwork, even if only for a very brief moment.


The idea that just by looking at images, the viewer can shift their focus and ‘escape ‘from the reality of daily life. Whether that be imagining yourself living life in a retro inspired Darwin or being taken away to a colourful world of 1960’s flower prints, fashion, and obscure patterns. 


We hope to evoke Images of places, a vivid colour palette and pattern evoking memories of freedom, fun and a sense of playfulness.


A holiday for the mind and a celebration of the joy of living and good times.
