Poetry at NEA - Maggie Hollins 'The Turtle'

17/2/2019

 
Maggie Hollins 'The Turtle' (multi media with poem) was exhibited in the Bainz Gallery, Wangaratta, as part of Goulburn and North East Arts Alliance group exhibition 'It's in the Bag' in 2018.  Maggie read 'The Turtle' at the Summer Solstice Poetry Reading at NEA in December 2018.  ​ Our Autumn Equinox Poetry Reading is on Friday 22 March from 7 to 9 pm in Gallery 2.  $5 donation.  
The Turtle

Our old sea turtle, sight waning 
And hungry for jellyfish - 
A favourite since his hatching, 
Unknowingly ate his last meal, Of plastic jellyfish,
Once dancing to the currents
And clouds of fragmented colour.
Now obstructing his gut.
Our old turtle sups and glides a while,
Between the menacing shapes
Slowly, spewing, garbage,
Until, starved and
Washed up on the shore
Where plastic headstones
Mark ocean graves.  Our old turtle,
Tight wrapped with a plastic shield
Gasping and spent, departs.
Just shy of his 58th year

Maggie Hollins 2018

Benalla Rural City Foyer Exhibition Space - 'Snake Gully' - Mervyn Beamish

13/2/2019

 
Picture
'Snake Gully'

'I am too uncomfortably familiar with fire in the bush and, in this painting, attempt to show its destructive and fearful nature.  Yet, also, I'm searching for a Phoenix quality as with fire comes rebirth'

Mervyn Beamish has exhibited at NEA for the past three years and shares a studio at NEA with his partner Irina Korotkow. 

Mervyn has drawn and painted since childhood.  He studied at East Sydney Technical College and then the National Art School, exhibiting at a number of galleries in the Eastern States of Australia after graduating.  His career took him into industrial and trade exhibition design, multimedia and film production and a 30+ career as a freelance writer.  Mervyn returned to full time painting in 2006.

Merv has run workshops in art and writing, is a published author and occasional resident artist.  He has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in New York, Germany, Poland and Australia.  His works are in both local and international private collections including Egypt, Malta, UK, USA and Germany.
