'21 Grams' is the title of the most recent exhibition of April White and Kay Bazley at Virgin Walls Gallery in Blackheath. April is showing recent paintings whilst Kay is exhibiting sculptural totems and metal work.
Fresh winners at this years Queens Birthday Weekend annual Bent Art exhibition in Wentworth Falls, April & Kay have curated a wonderful show to follow on from their success at Bent Art. April White was this years overall winner at Bent Art as well as winning the Painting category and Kay Bazley won the first prize for the category of sculpture as well as runner up for the Bent Art Prize. Both very worthy winners! Over the past few years, I have been fortunate enough to see the work of these two artists in several shows and look forward to future exhibitions.
April White has a B.F.A. Specialized Honours Degree, 1995, from the faculty of Fine Arts, York University, Canada and has travelled extensively, garnering inspiration and life experience for her full time studio practice which she has spent the past five years committed to. Her portraits are arresting in colour and imbued with a sense of veiled ambiguity.
Kay Bazley is an artist based in the Blue Mountains specialising in sculptural ceramics and welded steel. I'm looking forward to visiting Kay in her studio soon to learn more about her practice and inspiration. Watch this space...........
