In the heart of Marrickville live 2X Big Bad Wulffs; Barbara and Kay. The
mother and daughter duo are Sydney artists, boasting a colourful history in the
visual art world. From the 19th of July until the 5thof August, this exhibition
holds a range of paintings, drawings and sculptures spanning from their early
works to their most recent.
Exploring the diverse themes of the soul,
mortality, Buddhism, nature and modern surrealism, the exhibition covers a wide
range of interests. With ceramic riverstones, rock pools and seed pods, there
is something for nature lovers at heart, and for those who marvel in the
craftsmanship of bronze and metal work, there are some emotionally
challengingdepictions. The artworks seem to explore the duality of the human
condition, as each installation speaks to the individual, causing them to have
introspective moments of reflection. On the other hand, each piece then stands
for the wider human experience, as the artworks hold a universal appeal due to
their wit and satirical impact.
This exhibition is a community service run by
volunteers, so for those wishing for anenriching day of art and culture, look
no further. There is in fact an option to purchase these works or prints thereof,
however entry is free. *Please note,
however, we warn patrons that there is a strong emphasis on life drawings and sculptures,
so perhaps, parental supervision is required for minors.
For those in search of a day trip, we suggest
public transport. The art gallery is a mere 800 metres from the train station
with a short stroll down the multicultural main street. Feeling parched? To the
left of the station you’ll follow the waft of freshly ground coffee from the
Glasshouse Cafe, only to find an enticing display of Greek cakes and sweet
treats at the Hellenic Bakery. Take a break with some traditional Milfai (Vanilla
Slice), Baklava or a Caramel Baked Ricotta cheesecake.
