NINE accomplished artists from Geelong, Melbourne and regional Victoria will have their works showcased at Liminal Gallery in a coming exhibition.<\/p>\n

All Things Animal: from the observed to the imagined explores the theme of the animal realm, featuring a mix of styles ranging from naturalistic to fantastical and surreal.<\/p>\n

Co-curator and artist Jill Green said while all the artists have chosen different styles they are all linked through the theme of animals.<\/p>\n

“It’s really amazing and exciting to see just how different, it’s such a broad theme, and how different we all are and how we’re interpreting that.”<\/p>\n

Artists had their choice of mediums from drawing and painting through to printmaking, ceramics and more.<\/p>\n

Green said the exhibition is a treasure trove of art, exploring how people connect with animals.<\/p>\n

“I hope that people that come and view it, obviously there’s something enriching for the viewer that they see and that they’re connected and stimulated by something.<\/p>\n

“I think there’s something for everybody, there’s something that will be quite thought provoking, some quite emotive pieces, there’s a lot of humour in the group.”<\/p>\n

Artists chose from a range of mediums, with Cathy Ronalds’ piece featuring photography.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keeping on the theme of connecting with animals, Green’s piece for the exhibition features her childhood friend’s dog, Dottie.<\/p>\n

The piece is based on her friend when she was a little girl, but as her childhood dog, playing into the idea that pet owners morph into their animals.<\/p>\n

“She now has a black labrador called Grover and he’s kind of this gorgeous, friendly, dippy giant, but is a real homebody and he very much reflects my best friend,” Green said.<\/p>\n

“She sees my dog Chummy, who is just very extroverted, very loving, quite dynamic, is a real goofball, can be a bit of a blowfly with Grover and she says she’s exactly you as a kid.”<\/p>\n

The exhibition will open on July 26, with the exhibiting artists and celebratory drinks, while a Meet the Artists event will be held on August 16.<\/p>\n
