Meet Julie Blyfield in an exclusive preview of the exhibition!

<h3>Join us next Wednesday with the artist in an exclusive preview of the exhibition. Julie Blyfield will be flying up from South Australia to join us in the gallery. See you then!  </h3>

<p>Stanley Street Gallery is thrilled to present ‘Surfacing’ the latest exhibition from renowned South Australian artist Julie Byfield. This series is an extension of the ideas she developed after studying collections of red marine algae specimens stored in the State Herbarium of South Australia. The incredible variety and detail of the specimens captured her imagination and became the genesis for this new body of work. </p><p>Julie looks closely and explores the simple shapes, forms, and details of the pressed specimens, simplifying the details to repetitive elements. She is interested in the ‘slow’ crafting process and building technique and skills over an extended period. Working on surface patterns and detail, her pieces are labour intensive and require patience and time to create. </p>
