  • Brenda Hartill’s richly coloured collagraphs have a tactile quality that encourages closer observation. Her prints capture the strength and power of fire; from its role in chemistry and nature to the greater part that it plays in the balance of heat in our solar system.
  • aspects-of-fire-in-cont-art.jpgEaun Macleod’s gestural and thickly textured paintings of bonfires always suggest a human presence. His fascination with fire since his childhood reminds us of the mesmerizing qualities of flickering flames.
  • Peter Roche’s large neon sculptures are vivid interpretations of his drawings and ideas. Designed to glow in the dark and attract the eye, they can be understood and appreciated by all cultures and age groups.
  • The rich surface textures on Chester Nealie’s clay vessels are a tribute to the scientific skills of this potter. He has mastered the many variables of the woodfiring process and learnt to manipulate the fire, ash, temperatures and atmosphere of his kilns.
  • The superb prints and mixed-media drawings by John Wolseley have a light and fresh quality and focus on the natural cycles of fire and regeneration.His experiences and observations out in the Australian desert are captured in these delicate renderings.

    “I wish we had such books when I was at school.
    The interesting themes and interview style enable students to glimpse something of the personality and enthusiasms of the artists,
    as well as their images. It was a pleasure to take part.”

    -Brenda Hartill
