IN THREE MINDS; three artists think

7th – 13th November 2011 Thistle Hall, cnr Cuba & Arthur Streets
IN THREE MINDS; three artists think about elements, movement and myth
Jennifer Bogoievski * Karen Maggs * Barbara Lyon
You are invited to meet the artists at their opening on Monday 7th November at 5.30 pm.

Karen, Jennifer and Barbara met several years ago and have been exhibiting as part of a larger group ever since. This is their first exhibition at Thistle Hall.

Jennifer’s art pieces and installation are based on the female winged creatures taken from myth and folklore.
These liminal she-devils were invented to seduce, nag and harangue men. Jennifer uses mixed-media and found objects to give these mythical hybrids more positive and powerful qualities which they could have had before they were reinvented to suit patriarchal societies.

Karen is continuing to explore layering of colour using the spatter technique. She is investigating this through a theme based on the four main elements of water, air, fire and earth.


Barbara’s work reflects an interest in conveying visually an experience similar to that conveyed by music and dance: rhythm, tonality / atonality, the transitional instant between control and transfiguring release, the ceaseless frenetic moment of every part of the created world and the fluctuating attraction of each piece and creature to another.
