Scratching Around Exhibition 30 March to 18 April 2021 at the Bribie Island Community Art Centre

To scratch around is to dig in search of something (usually special). Ten Contemporary Bribie Artists have been scratching around in order to create unique and special images for their annual “Scratch the Surface” exhibition. (They have left” no stone unturned” to “find a needle in a haystack”).

Creativity is at the heart of adaptability, which is essential for coping with changes. Being creative can be risky.

All artists like to break the rules and manipulate their chosen media to push the boundaries.

The work on display at the Matthew Flinders Art Gallery will be new and exciting. There is painting, printing, textile work and sculptural pieces, both figurative and abstract.
