The Vulnerability of Exhibiting with Australian Artist Tammy Whitworth

But just to get this conversation rolling, first of all, I just want to say a huge congratulations.

Thank you.

So the show that we're talking about, everyone, is Unearthed, which is a duo exhibition alongside the amazing Zoe Cernak, who we recently had on the podcast quite a few weeks back now.

Um, but I take my hat off to Brenda, Brenda Colahan Fine Art located in Sydney.

She has done an exceptional job in curating this show between the two of you, because there is just such an interesting conversation that goes on when you see Zoe's work, which is quite layered and very energetic.

And a lot of those pieces are quite large as well with a lot of texture.

in polar opposite to yours that are so small and so still and so intricate.

And one of the things that I said to you on the opening night was, when It's very, very difficult to create very small work that feels so expansive.

And I feel like after seeing your work, it is the absolute example of that.

They make you feel so expansive looking at these tiny, tiny little, I don't know, they're, you almost want to kind of pick them up off the wall and hold them in your hand and they're like little artifacts.

oh thank you well i guess i i do try and create a work where it is like a quiet moment of curiosity and just questioning and delving in a bit deeper into you know our thoughts and our existence even um and just where we all are in this universe um so thank you but also I yeah like Brenda did such an amazing I'm just so thankful to Brenda she's just beautiful And yeah, but I do think that Zoe's and my work have really worked well together, just exploring our connections to nature and where we are, where we fit within it.

Yeah.

And

there's one more week left, isn't there?

Yes.

Yes, there is.

Yes.

Yeah, I need to double check

the date.

25th, I think it is.

What I'm going to try and do, I'm going to even try and schedule this to come out kind of before it should so that people can get kind of a last... last minute post to kind of filter some more people in there but it looks as though you guys had such a big turnout for that artist talk as well how did that go

yeah yeah it went really well um Yeah, Alan Jones, he was fantastic at interviewing and it was a really great talk.

So, you know, a lot of nerves beforehand, but it actually went really, really lovely.

So it was really, it was fun.

So, yeah.
