Celebrating First Nations' spirituality and culture through the songlines of our land and sky, this year’s Lighting the Sails is about painting and celebrating country through a pattern of sharing systems, interconnected history lines and trade routes.
Lighting the Sails Director and Head of Indigenous Programming at Sydney Opera House Rhoda Roberts has selected six artists of different clans, national estates and territories for an immersive projected artwork that weaves through time and distance.
As the first indigenous work commissioned exclusively for the sails of the Sydney Opera House, this visual tapestry will weave through personal journeys, while celebrating the timeless themes and enduring art of Australia's most influential contemporary First Nations artists, exclusive to Vivid Sydney.

The Curators Room is proud to Announce Needles in the Hay, a group show curated by Sasha Bogojev.
One of the things we’ve become more aware of in the past two years of the global pandemic is the unforgiving power of odds. No matter how small and insignificant a certain probability might be, recent times taught us that its mere existence is predestined to make an impact on the elements connected to it. And it’s this concept of chances and the related idea of risk and hope, as well as the general sense of liability, that prompted Sasha Bogojev to put together an exhibition where numbers work to our advantage.
As much as social media, namely Instagram, might have contributed to the democratization of the art world and have provided a historically unseen platform to creatives to introduce their work, the abundance of content makes this experience increasingly harder. With the growing interference and influence of both genuine and wannabe art advisors, collectors, curators, galleries, foundations, or institutions, the haystack we’re working through is becoming exponentially more convoluted and deceiving. And while this situation can be difficult for art aficionados and collectors, it can certainly turn frustrating for the artists themselves.
Overlooked by the almighty tastemakers or generally misrepresented, they are still out there, in the shadow of the mesmerizing spotlight of art trends, making the work that deserves more attention than it might be currently getting. And with this show, Sasha Bogojev and Gabriel Rolt from Amsterdam’s The Curators Room are doing their part to make the difference, find these gems hidden in plain sight and present their works in a large two-floor, multi-room space in the historic center of Amsterdam.
With an extensive overview of numerous studio practices and the positioning of people working there, Juxtapoz magazine’s contributing editor eye-picked a selection of international artists whose works deserve their own time in the spotlight. Whether looking at the general concepts of their practice, the particularities of their process, or their ways of handling and utilizing the chosen techniques or mediums, Needles in the Hay are having an important role in the ongoing development and conversation about figurative art, and especially painting. Frequently focusing on the atmosphere suggested by chosen colors and the sense of dynamics or movement conveyed through the often fluid yet determined paint manipulation, the work is having its footing in historic timeline with references to Surrealism, Cubism, Fauvism, Surrealism, as well as outsiders art, illustration, and abstraction. Hailing from all over the world, from New Zealand, over Australia, Japan, China, South Korea, to the USA, and across Europe and the UK, the exhibition is meant to provide a focused digest of exciting practices taking place at (mostly painters’) studios at the present time.
The exhibition will be including a selection of works by Grgur Akrap, Zac Yeates, Anna Jung Seo, Chiaki Kadota, Donglai Meng, Joseph Noderer, Eskubi Joseba, Erkut Terliksiz, Stijn Bastianen, Harry Rothel, Adam Štech, Andrea Medjesi-Jones, Yonel Watene, and Frank Jimin Hopp.

Good morning everyone :)
Happy Friday! ... as the weather has totally cooled down here, I thought that sharing this collection might be appropriate. You can find the link to it {plus detailed links to each shop & prices} right here, where I shared some thoughts on the subject of "Staying in - the new going out", the original title of this treasury recently curated [more treasuries here & there]. You are always welcome & invited to join in if you wish!
For those of you who' d like to know, I'm currently involved in the designing process of our soon to be new home {not a piece of cake, I assure you, as the space has off course its advantages but quite a few shortcomings, too}, while also sorting out & packing our things & preparing/ planning our movement.
It's a good chance to review some past approaches to life & I'm seeing that more and more, having less & less things attracts me.
I prefer to sort things out, keep the ones that are really needed, functional and definitely aesthetically pleasing / while totally matching the home's "outfit", than over stuff a place with storage for things of no use.
So, you have noticed that I'm rarely here, paying visits is also only but an exception for the time being. I'm looking forward to a few weeks from now, having settled in, and for the first time then, saying that I'll devote all the time that I wish, strolling through flickr and spending time with you!
Much love ♥ best of wishes,
Iro - Ivy xx

One of the most over used words in the current lexicon of advertising in curated. It started to crop up on everything from home decor to food.
Step into a serene seaside escape where rustic charm meets breezy coastal elegance. This beautifully curated living space captures the soothing essence of beachside living with its soft neutrals, weathered wood textures, and ocean-inspired accents.

Created for The Co-Curators Resource Group
I have had the great pleasure of curating Tim Connor’s photo stream
for the The Co-Curators Resource Group project. Tim was a relatively early contact of mine on Flickr and although I had followed his posts for many months I did not have a grasp on what he was about until I did this project. The selection I made for the collage is not meant to include his “best” work in any other sense than that each image represents one of the themes, styles, or qualities I found particularly salient in his body of work. I will be leaving a comment on each of these images and summarize my overall impressions here.
Color Stalker:
Tim’s screen name “Colorstalker” aptly points to one of the qualities of his photos, particularly those in his Last Light set, replete with studies of the walls and buildings of his urban environment in the last light of day (10, 14, 21, 29, 30). These scenes, likely drab and ordinary most of the time, are shown to us as vivid paintings, often transformed into brilliant murals by the inclusion of trees, vines, or shadows. His love for his City is apparent in these photos and we picture him wandering streets empty of all but glorious light and shadows.
Partial Observer:
The majority of the images I chose illustrate Tim’s ability to capture moments in people’s lives that invite us to understand their larger stories, and his own as well. Tim is not a voyeur or even an impartial observer. His glimpses into strangers’ lives are sympathetic and we sense him as an integral inter-actor in the scene, either because of the direct regard of those in his camera’s eye, the inclusion of his own shadow, or by a point of view that seems to merge him with the central character in a scene. Although his images are typically non-judgmental, there are exceptions that prove the rule; some of Tim’s images are powerful statements about our society (4, 13, 22).
Nostalgic:
For want of a better term, I’m using nostalgic to describe a quality of the images that grabbed me and kept hold. Tim has posted a set of black and white snapshots he took in 1976 (Snapshots Deluxe set) that remind us of simpler times and simpler environments (c.f., 11, 12). Kids play alone on city streets, teenage girls sunbathe in back yards, and shy adults sit on porch couches. These images tug at the heart and call up vivid memories for those of us who grew up in those times. Some of my favorite recent images have a timeless quality (3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) with a similar emotional impact.
Persistent focus:
When you visit Tim’s stream, be sure to check out his sets. These collections illustrate the intensity of his work ethic and intellectual focus. Although the photos on his stream show a remarkable variety of people, places, and contexts, a visit to his sets shows how tenacious he can be when he feels especially drawn to a topic. I particularly like his By the Sea and Cape Cod sets (5, 6) and his China set (17, 24, 25, 26 27); his latest focus on the saints and madonnas in city yards (2, Saints set) has yielded images just begging to be collected into a book.
I hope this selection is useful as an invitation to a rich and fascinating journey through Tim’s stream. Be sure to attend to his text and the comments for the images for a better understanding of his process. You can see my original selection by going" here " I started with 106 images.

East Maitland. 47 William St. The elegant St Peters Anglican Church which is heritage listed was built in 1885. The Anglican parish here was established in 1834 making it one of the oldest in Australia. The church received a land grant on Stockade Hill and a basic school room and church opened here in 1829. A few years later around 1840 a new brick school, using materials from the Stockade Hill School was constructed on this site in Banks Street. It is possibly built with the oldest red bricks for a school in Australia. In 1897 it became the Parish Hall. The grand sandstone church was designed by architects Cyril Blacket and his father the famous Edmund Blacket architect. The church was completed in 1885. The Vicarage to the south of the church was built in 1860 as the first full time parish vicar was appointed in 1859. It was added to extensively in 1920 with weatherboard additions. There is a Curate’s cottage facing Banks Street built in Edwardian style about 1900.
