View EventCassandra Brynder: Dreaming of the Top End at Redbill Studio Gallery
Art Exhibition10:30am - 2:00pm
CASSANDRA BRYNDER EXHIBITION. Dreaming of the Top End at Redbill Studio Gallery. In Dreaming of the Top End, Cassandra Bynder presents a deeply personal body of Gelli plate monotypes born from a period of grief, healing and creative rediscovery. The exhibition began with an unexpected encounter—an op-shop copy of Frank Hodgkinson's Kakadu and the Arnhem Landers. During a time when painting no longer came easily, Hodgkinson's expressive depictions of Arnhem Land sparked something both familiar and profound. His vibrant use of colour, texture and mark-making became the catalyst for a new way of creating, allowing Cassandra to reconnect with joy through play, experimentation and intuition.
