SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: SC Arts Centre: Carolina Franzen & Helena Wadsley
DESCRIPTION:Helena Wadsley and Carolina Franzen\, both Sunshine Coast residents\, have adopted a diverse tradition of Walking Art into their practices. Engaged with the challenges posed by land use\, and in order to find alternative relations to the land\, their inspiration for drawings\, sculptures\, and video comes through periods of intense physical contact to the environment; be it that objects found in the landscape may be contextually sculpted so that their meaning and history remains connected with the land\, be it that a slow pace allows them to witness and to create through acts of acknowledgment and connectivity. Both artists’ drawings tread the lines of the land between natural and human-made\, and yet\, their sculptures\, found objects\, and video works have a second threshold in common: to record the walking experience while enabling the visitor to traverse with them.

SUMMARY:The Kube: April Feature Artist - Mia Dungeon 'Barbed Wire Moon'
DESCRIPTION:Mia Dungeon lived on the road and made art out of her van for several years. Navigating the ever-changing landscape\, her work is a sponge to the constant influx of vast visual stimuli innate to life on the road. The windshield of her 6’ x 12’ live/workspace on wheels served as a viewing portal that framed her transient experiences and challenges of life on the road that she translated into artwork. \nDungeon’s work grows out of the notions of housing instability\, broken bones\, grief\, world conflict and the healing that can knit it all back together. Her belief that everyone deserves housing security\, safety and stability is integral to Mia’s practice. The creation of make-shift dwellings and temporary living environments utilizing scrap material is explored through her work by repurposing used skateboards\, motorcycle tanks\, old cigar boxes and found objects as her canvases. \nMia’s solo time spent in the Mojave Desert between Joshua Tree and the West coastline of Southern California had a great impact on her work. Her paintings are infused with desert flora and fauna\, dusty motorcycle/skateboard trips\, and nights spent under the desert stars contemplating the complexities of the human experience. \nAs we transition from the year of the Wood Snake (2025) to the year of the Fire Horse (2026)\, this series titled “Barbed Wire Moon” also explores notions of shedding stagnant ideals and bursting forth with bold momentum toward social justice\, truth and freedom. \nDungeon explores how we might remain collectively resilient\, empathetic\, and move forward with a unified confidence through times of fear\, chaos and division.
