SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Lee Bethel and Michael Simms
DESCRIPTION:Join us at NERAM as we speak to and learn from exhibiting artists Michael Simms: Stages and Lee Bethel: A Way with Words. Hear about the creative\, emotive and intellectual journey’s taken by the artists in producing these body of works. \nWe’ll talk to Michael Simms about his exhibition Stages\, an ongoing series of portraits\, honouring performers whose work spans music\, theatre\, dance and performance art. A series that explores how presence is expressed — both onstage and off. \nLearn from Lee Bethel about her exhibition A Way With Words\, works that explore the material and symbolic potential of paper\, cutting and shaping it into intricate forms that cast shadows of memory\, history\, and meaning. A Way With Words is a powerful reflection on feminism\, language\, and domesticity. \nThis is an opportunity to connect with the artists and gain a deeper understanding of their work\, their influences and their processes. Please book your ticket below. \n\n \n  \n  \nImage: Michael Simms\, The Celebutante (detail)\, 2023\, oil on canvas. \nImage: Lee Bethel\, Counting The Dead (detail)\, 2022\, watercolour and hand cut paper. \n
