| Magnifying the Fine Print of Recent Histories
|
Date: 2nd February to 26th FebruaryVenue: The Channon Gallery The gallery's February exhibition presents the work of Ross McMaster, a Lismore artist with a background in graphic design and a lifetime exploring his personal beliefs. Ross's work in print, painting and montage provides layer upon layer of his findings in the context of historical events, making apparent errors and hypocrisy associated with past actions of the Church as Institution. Ross's work questions the validity of organised religion within contemporary society as well as its political agenda. It does not question spirituality or faith - only the actions conducted in its name by the Institution. Please be advised that there is a strong language warning associated with some the work in this exhibition. This may offend some viewers.
Gallery Hours: Wednesday to Sunday 10am to 5pm.

| Personal Geometry: Oksana Waterfall
|
Date: 4 February - 18 March 2012 Venue: The Lismore Gallery Upstairs, Regional Gallery, 131 Molesworth Street, Lismore By keeping my images small, I hope to draw the viewer in to see the details of my private universe."
This exhibition is a glimpse at the people the artist comes across in her everyday life. Finely crafted and of an intimate scale, the drawings are from a timeline of everyone she talked to in a random two week period. They represent clusters of similarity and commonality (the teenagers and friends, their fathers, the mothers) but also those particular idiosyncrasies which make us individuals.
Oksana Waterfall is a visual artist based on the North Coast of NSW. She is currently studying for her postgraduate Advanced Diploma in Fine Arts.
