Affinity exhibition at the Old Ambo

Andrew Bryant and Kerry Wilson.

The Old Ambo’s latest exhibition, Affinity, features Nambour teachers Kerry Wilson & Andrew Bryant and reflects their shared passion for making art and teaching.

Both have a natural affinity and an interest in maintaining an arts practice alongside working as art lecturers at Queensland East Coast TAFE in Nambour. Kerry’s work focuses on contemporary landscape. She combines a penchant for mark- making with emotion, mood and drama in the tradition of romantic landscape painting. 

Using energetic marks and atmosphere in mixed media, Kerry invites the viewer to experience and connect with the landscape.

Andrew’s ceramics explore the beauty of inner anatomy within simple clay forms. This process merges texture, colour and sculptural possibilities with functional ceramics.

Many will know these artists as the dynamic teachers they are, and engage with the content and essence of their work. 

• The exhibition runs 16 October to 7 November. The Old Ambulance Station Gallery is open Monday to Friday from 10am to 3pm.
