New gallery display is pride of Logan

A piece of local nautical history has inspired an intricate piece of artwork that will go on display soon at Logan Art Gallery.

Sunnybank artist Pamela See has used a contemporary form of Chinese paper cutting to create a visual interpretation of the schooner The Pride of Logan which was built adjacent to the Logan River in 1872.

This exhibition, also called The Pride of Logan, is among three on display at the gallery from Friday, July 28 until Saturday, September 2.

Pamela (also known by her Chinese name Xue Mei-Ling) used silhouette portraits and paper effigies to highlight the ship, some crew and cargo.

Her work will be exhibited alongside another series of papercuts created to commemorate the Kingston Butter Factory, its former occupants and artefacts from the site.

This project is supported by the Regional Arts Development Fund, a partnership between the Queensland Government and Logan City Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland.

In the second exhibition, young Woodridge artist Imman Grashuis has created a series of paintings using the image of an astronaut to explore human emotions.

Also included in this round is a National Exhibitions Touring Support (NETS) Victoria touring exhibition entitled Conflated, curated by Zoë Bastin and Claire Watson.

The artists use inflatable forms and the cycle of breathing to portray experiences, behaviours and expressions.

Zoe, along with artist Eugenia Lim and Deakin University Professor of Visual Arts David Cross will discuss Conflated from 5pm on opening night (Friday, July 28).

Professor Cross will later officially open all three exhibitions.

The program is complemented by free workshops for adults and children in sculpture, paper cutting, collage and paint, artists’ trading cards and landscape painting.

The gallery, on the corner of Jacaranda Ave and Wembley Rd, Logan Central, is open Tuesday to Saturday (10am to 5pm). Entry is free.
