Show us your Mettle

Mettle: a person's ability to cope well with difficulties or to face a demanding situation in a spirited and resilient way...

"Show us your Mettle" is a group show by 8 local artists and 1 writer. The motley crew exhibiting are Adam Webb, Davida Wiley, Jan Kierzkowski, Julia Collinson, Karissa Taylor, Kim Thompson, Penny Lovelock, Sharna Sirris an Paul Kierzkowski.

Together they will be exhibiting a range of two dimensional pieces from works on paper and paintings to three dimensional assemblages and sculptures. Plus there will be a reading of some prose at the opening, adding a fourth dimension.

This will be an exciting exhibition with all of the artists responding to the exhibition title in both obvious and obscure ways.

Ode to Iron

Basic in it's make-up
Honest in it's use
Reliable within it's limits
Fractured with abuse
