This exhibition celebrates our bird life of Sydney's Inner-west.

A 10-year retrospective showcasing Angela's award-winning images as well as an insight into the tireless work wildlife carers do for our local birdlife. It's a call to action for appreciation, admiration & respect for all those feathered friends who live alongside us.

Angela has been a resident in the Inner-west for 20 years and has noticed changes to the local bird life, both positive & negative. Throughout the years, through her photographic art, Angela has explored themes such as habitat connections, baby bird growths, behaviour & relationships with our urban environment. Through her lens, Angela captures intricate details and unique personalities of her avian subjects by creating striking compositions which not only immortalizes the grace and splendour of birds but also inspires action to protect them.

Many Australian bird species are declining in urban areas and declining overall.

Is ageing, as Doris Lessing posits, a ‘cage of associations and labels’, or does growing older offer us the freedom to shed former roles and explore fresh selves? 

In this exhibition of artworks by 25 women, many permutations on this rich and complex theme are presented. The diverse array of materials employed offer pause for thought about how we might communicate philosophical ideas through art making. From the comic to the affectionate, the angry to the content, the range of creative perspectives in this show aim to surprise, delight and provoke.

The exhibition includes many creative workshops, talks and get-togethers over its 3-week period, so please check out all the offerings (through Eventbrite).
