One of my paintings is currently on display to the public at the Victorian Artists Society as part of the Summer Exhibition 2023. My painting was created in 2021 in Nic Chen's art classes at the VAS before the disruptions caused by the statewide covid lockdowns. Originally exhibited in the VAS Art School and Tutors Exhibition at the VAS that same year, the circuit breaker snap lockdown saw to it that the exhibition stayed closed for the duration of the show.
I feel that it is a perfect opportunity now to show the work publicly at this event, which has well over 100 art works on display. It is interesting to see one's work in context with other art works in the gallery and it is an enriching experience as an artist to participate in these events.
