SUMMARY:Echoes in Time and Space
DESCRIPTION:By Michael Graeve and Christoph Dahlhausen\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpening:Saturday 9 May\, 3pm-5pm\n\n\n\nArtists talk:Saturday 16 May\, 3pm\n\n\n\nFor this Lot19 exhibition\, Dahlhausen and Graeve bring into play both new and older works\, allowing them to react to one another\, and to the environs of the gallery. In this way\, the title “Echoes in Time and Space” acquires both literal and metaphorical dimensions. \n\n\n\nA plethora of compositional propositions and material textures contribute towards a spatial noisiness\, even without the explicit inclusion of sound. Canvases\, aluminium panels\, lights and foils speak with and over each other as component parts. Each work develops dialogues – fields of resonance – with the others\, and with the gallery itself\, which is constantly transformed by changes in daylight. These conditions form to be specific and contingent: they are\, here and now\, uniquely\, what they are. In turn\, artworks that previously functioned in isolation\, are put to work in ever-changing ensembles. \n\n\n\nDahlhausen and Graeve’s works also respond to the surroundings\, breathing in the light. Dahlhausen’s foil and aluminium works reflect and refract\, while Graeve’s canvases speed up and slow down. Boundaries dissolve. Dahlhausen’s light rods mark a musical staccato within the space\, echoing the rhythmic placement of Graeve’s canvases. A total work emerges. \n\n\n\nOpenness is the central theme. Everything contributes: past and present\, inside and outside\, colour and light\, surface and space\, gloss and matte\, reduction and complication. Everything is in flux: here and now\, today and tomorrow\, noise and silence. The signal reaches out\, the echo speaks back\, changed by what it has touched along the way. \n\n\n\nBIOSTwo artists\, one from Germany\, the other from Australia\, have now collaborated for exactly 20 years\, working together with a sense of joy and discovery. Their shared projects are driven by the dissolution of certain material and spatial boundaries\, as well as the bridging of distances. \n\n\n\nThe German artist\, Dr Christoph Dahlhausen\, initially studied cello\, and in his practice focuses on light\, colour and space. His installations frequently address space and place – as does the work here for Lot19. The Australian artist\, Michael Graeve\, often combines aspects of painting and sound. Both artists are united by their interest in reductive visual languages\, and clarities of form. These characteristics\, if considered as tactics\, create space for a specific kind of free and open experiencing – even for the works themselves\, which resonate differently in the context of each new encounter. \n\n\n\nExhibition dates:Fridays-Sundays\, 10 to 24 May11am to 4pm

SUMMARY:Meanwhile\, in Castlemaine
DESCRIPTION:By Julie Lovett\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOpening:Saturday 18 April\, 2pm-5pm\n\n\n\nThe work presented at Lot 19 emerges from the unstable space of the artist residency — a site that promises reflection and transformation but often delivers something far less resolved. Working across painting and film\, I treat the act of making as both subject and material\, allowing the work to turn back on itself. \n\n\n\nI place myself within the work as a semi-fictional\, autobiographical character — performing the role of the artist somewhere between sincerity and parody. The work leans into self- portraiture\, self-consciousness and the pressure to produce meaning in unfamiliar surroundings. \n\n\n\nThe Australian landscape operates as a constant backdrop — echoing my earlier engagement with the Irish landscape — but here it becomes a stage set as much as a site\, exposing the constructed nature of the work. \n\n\n\nUsing banal narratives\, humour and self-interrogation\, the exhibition resists resolution\, lingering instead in something unresolved\, self-aware and slightly uncomfortable. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJulie Lovett is an artist from County Kerry\, Ireland\, working across painting\, performance and durational video. Her practice draws on the landscape\, labour and lived experience of her rural upbringing. Working from this context has required her to generate her own opportunities\, shaping a strong sense of independence and authorship. \n\n\n\nHer work explores the tension between artistic professionalism\, vulnerability and belonging. She holds a BA from LSAD and an MFA from the University of Ulster\, and has exhibited nationally and internationally. \n\n\n\nExhibition dates:Friday-Sunday\, 18 April to 2 May

SUMMARY:It's  a Kind of Wonder
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with Castlemaine Fringe\n\n\n\nWearable art exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCurated by Jody Galvin\, Azzy Jay\, Kya Moore\, Ellen Doyle\, Madeleine Somers\, Martin John Lee\, Andi Herman\, Melissa Clark\, Michelle Newton and Kaz McMullan \n\n\n\nThe Castlemaine Fringe Festival brings its signature creativity to the State Festival with It’s a Kind of Wonder – a wearable art exhibition that transforms fashion into fantasy. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition showcases handmade works that are bold\, playful and unapologetically individual. Each piece redefines what it means to wear art – from sculptural headpieces to textile experiments that blure the line between costume and concept. The result is an explosion of colour\, craft and character\, true to Castlemaine’s reputation as a creative melting pot. It’s a Kind of Wonder is an invitation to revel in the weird and wonderful – to see the human body not just as a canvas\, but as a living artwork. \n\n\n\nOpening Hours Friday 20 March – 11am to 4pmSaturday 21 March – 11am to 4pmSunday 22 March – 11am to 4pmFriday 27 March – 11am to 4pmSaturday 28 March – 11am to 4pm

These sensitive\, hand-built forms explore notions of touch\, healing and memory. \n\n\n\nJenny Divers’ ceramic practice is inspired by natural and constructed landscapes through which she has lived\, worked and travelled. These contemplative forms investigate place and invite tactile engagement. \n\n\n\nOpening Sunday 8 February\, 4pm to 6pm \n\n\n\nOpening Hours Sat 7 February\, 10-4pmSunday Feb 8 – 10am – 6pm (Opening Reception 4pm – 6pm)Thursday Feb 12 – 10am – 4pmFriday Feb 13 – 10am – 4pmSaturday Feb 14 – 10am – 4pmSunday Feb 15 – 10am – 4pmThursday Feb 19 – 10am – 4pmFriday Feb 20 – 10am – 4pmSaturday Feb 21 – 10am – 4pmSunday Feb 22 – 10am – 4pm

SUMMARY:UNFATHOMABLE: Opening Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Opening Celebration: Saturday 7 December\, 2pm \n\n\n\nUNFATHOMABLE – deep\, inexplicable\, confounding\, lost. \n\n\n\nSome things are just too hard to find words for. Too raw to be exposed. Too difficult to unpack. Featuring new work by 5 central victorian artists\, this exhibition at Lot 19 Gallery in Castlemaine takes that which is hard to explain and transforms it into challenging\, beautiful\, messy\, and inspiring artworks – this is how we talk about the things that are unfathomable. \n\n\n\nMinna Graham (Musk\, 3461) responds to the emotions within grief that feel too overwhelming. Grief\, loss\, and sorrow can be too much to hold inside. Minna creates physical forms—vessels\, containers—that embody these feelings\, giving them a tangible space where they can exist and be processed. These pieces are not about finding answers\, but about creating space to hold what cannot always be said. \n\n\n\nJackie Gorring’s (Allendale\, 3364) relief prints are each a story\, like chapters in a book they come together to form something more complete and deeper than the individual story can tell by itself. Jackie chose these relief prints for Unfathomable because they represent the loss of loved ones or friends who have moved away\, or the loss of herself at times. \n\n\n\nElla Hughes (Guildford\, 3451) has created a small army of golems to hold her grief. A golem will do the work its master asks of it\, and it will keep doing it forever. “There is a culture of shame around grief\,” she says. “we’re criticised for grieving too much or too little\, too loudly\, or too quietly.” Ella has also created sculptural works that are part homage\, part portrait\, and part commemoration. Like a statue that would be created for a famous person\, these pieces pay a very personal homage to the women in her life who gifted her a love of craft\, textiles and making. Ella Hughes lives in Guildford but makes ceramics in her studio at Lot 19 in Castlemaine. \n\n\n\nWorking with found clay from around central Victoria Chandra Paul (Clunes\, 3370) has conducted numerous experiments to make vessels from the very ground beneath her. This is a highly technical and multilayered process that takes extraordinary amounts of time. Chandra says that her experiences have taught her that there is beauty in the weathered\, uneven\, transient and unfinished. Flaws are meaningful\, normal and harbour memory. \n\n\n\nDannielle Wilkinson’s (Castlemaine\, 3450) work for this exhibition\, My father called me barren\, explores the unique relationship between women and their reproductive system….in particular\, the fact that these are the only organs in the body that we are asked if we are using them or wasting them. Every woman will have a distinctly individual relationship with this part of their body and will respond differently to conversation and questions that surround it\, and every one of those relationships is valid and should be heard. \n\n\n\nThese artworks have the capacity to handle the complexity of emotions that we find hard to articulate or bear. In many ways the artworks are better at expressing our innermost thoughts and feelings than we are ourselves. \n\n\n\nGallery open 10am-4pm\, Saturday & Sunday\, 7 – 22 December.
