Sunday Sketch Sessions | Tina Havelock Stevens: Now is a Beginning

Head to BRAG each Sunday during Tina Havelock Stevens' solo exhibition Now is a Beginning for a self-guided Sunday Sketch Session!

All welcome, materials supplied.

A gentle epic, inspired by Bathurst – yet not about Bathurst, Now is a Beginning embraces magical thinking, place(s), architectural space, where you begin, the unknowns, new narratives in a place once familiar, improvisation, social and sensory engagement. Embodying a universal experience of the shifting, contemporary 'now', the exhibition offers a gathering point for reflection on the past as well as the current state of play of the world, marked by political urgencies and the ruptures of unforeseen, unpredictable events.

Tina Havelock Stevens presents an existential narrative of connections over time, borne from the adrenaline of riding motorbikes as a ten-year-old on her uncle's farm, to the metaphysical experience of packing up her late mother's house. Zones in the gallery, swathed in saturated colour, create charged atmospheres for exploration of light installations, video/film, photography, object-based works, sculpture and sound.

The project is supported by the New South Wales Government through Create NSW and by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
