The SLAB celebrated the end of our first year with an exhibition of local artists and a long table feast. Curated by Miriam Williamson and Brad Allen-Waters.
Blue Mountains based artist Emma Rooney exhibited in the
inner SLAB space. Delicate works in a range of media including wax, cassurina
needles, glass, snakeskin, photography and video taken from our local
surrounds. Emma's home and The SLAB share an outlook onto the Blue Labyrinth in
the Central Blue Mountains.
Mahalya Middlemist is an experimental filmmaker based in
Katoomba. The work shown was one part of a large three piece work projected on
a range of large perspex screens. Untitled HD Video duration 10 minutes (2015).
Early in the evening we puffed a little fog around screen. Photographs by
Kalyani Saint and Billy Gruner.
Kandos artist,Fleur MacDonald's exquisite work hung from the
SLAB cage and sparkled throughout the evening. Each sequin was painstakingly
hand glued.

'Red, Green, Yellow and Purple are the colours of the lights
predominately used by the Railway in Kandos. This work reflects the essence of
those colours in a once bustling community before the Cement Works and the
Railway closed for good.
