Wendy SHARPE has 25 large paper works featured in the exhibition A Homage to Woman Magic: celebrating the goddess within us, at the Centrespace Gallery, from November 7 to 13.
“In celebration of the Goddess Cultures, offering historic and contemporary links for artists to the power of both nature and ritual. Including connections to a sense of how magical thinking can entangle us. Be this through myth and legend or legacy artists’ part in performing resistance.
Visionary painters through time have been reclaiming the spiral, the symbol and the sacred in their layered compositions interpreted through dreamscapes and the sacred feminine, sacred sites”
