Connecting and Interpreting : Story #3 from the ATASDA Collaborative Golden Cape Background : The Golden Cape is a collaborative project for ATASDA members and it celebrates the 50th Anniversary of ATASDA in 2024. 50 present day members have received an image of one of 50 yesteryear members artworks, to use as a muse, to create new artwork based on the past. Inspiration can come from textures, colours, style, design, subject, culture or history of the original artwork. The new artworks have become panels stitched together to create a Golden Cape - an anniversary art wearable . The Golden Cape will be displayed at various venues around Australia from May 2024. Vine (Exotica 2009 ATASDA exhibition ) : Norma Warnecke Meg Buchtmann chose Norma Warnecke's 2009 artwork shown in the ATASDA exhibition "Exotica" as her inspiration for her contribution to the golden cape project .

Belated, but nonetheless very sincere congratulations on your opening night, Wilma!
ReplyDeleteThis post to your blog, with the wonderful photographs, speaks volumes about the success of your exhibition. The first two photos taken from outside the Gallery and showcasing the area of your well- attended exhibit are so very creative and interesting. They effectively draw in the observer, making him feel part of the intimate scene - truly amazing. I particularly enjoyed the photo with Jim in the foreground - silent, supportive, steadfast partner at the ready.
You both have worked so hard to bring this event to fruition. Well done!!
