Mayor Jon Raven and Councillors of the City of Logan invite you to the official opening of Big Sculpture; Kristina Hall + Glenda Orr Nature’s Calligraphers; and Jade Payot Egglesfield Ripple effect: out of artwaves.

Exhibitions opening are:

Big sculpture

The Cairns Indigenous Art Fair’s Big Sculpture touring exhibition is a captivating showcase, presenting the cultural talents of emerging and prominent artists. At the heart of this exhibition are large-scale commissioned works that stand as testaments to the artists’ profound connection to culture, land, and heritage. Through the masterful use of modern and repurposed materials, the sculptures not only reflect artistic prowess but also echo a commitment to sustainability and innovation.

Nature’s calligraphers

Kristina Hall + Glenda Orr
Nature’s calligraphers explores the role insects play within the ecology of Logan’s forests. Through various forms of printmaking, Kristina and Glenda recreate the patterns insects create on trees, to produce thoughtful works on paper and other materials.

Ripple Effect – out of Artwaves

Jade Payot Egglesfield
Each year, Logan Art Gallery selects one of the outstanding young artists who exhibited in the annual Artwaves: Logan and adjacent areas secondary schools’ art exhibition. Through mentoring, the young artist develops their own solo exhibition for Logan Art Gallery’s Young Peoples Gallery. The 2024 Artwaves Mentorship was jointly awarded to two students, and the second recipient was Jade Egglesfield.
