This year’s SpringART is very excited to<br />
have the <strong>art</strong>ist Will Nolan and his urban<br />
landscape photography for our feature<br />
works. Photography is an exciting<br />
medium, which is developing as an<br />
important <strong>art</strong> form for the Twenty First<br />
Century. Will is a young and talented<br />
photographer who has received much<br />
attention early in his <strong>art</strong> career.<br />
Will originally studied drafting but<br />
decided that he wanted a more<br />
creative focus to his study and<br />
returned to <strong>art</strong> school to study painting.<br />
While studying photography as p<strong>art</strong> of<br />
his course, he became fascinated by<br />
the dark room process of Photogram’s<br />
(a non camera technique). The hands<br />
on process appealed to him.<br />
After completing a Bachelor of Visual<br />
Art at the University of South Australia<br />
in 2008, specialising in photography,<br />
Will released his TRACE ELEMENTS<br />
a series of photographs, which were<br />
exhibited at Gallery 139. This series<br />
was met with critical acclaim.<br />
SpringART is delighted to exhibit Will’s<br />
current series, “WHAT LIES WITHIN”.<br />
This series of work developed though<br />
the exploration of the photographic<br />
landscape whereby shadows become<br />
abstract forms, changing the viewer’s<br />
2<br />
perception of the landscape. Will’s<br />
inventive images draw the viewer’s<br />
eye to a new and exciting way of<br />
considering the urban environment<br />
as it is captured by photography. This<br />
body of work presents the graphic<br />
beauty of the everyday, illustrating and<br />
recording facets of urban life.<br />
Our feature piece, “UNTITLED #1”, is<br />
deliberately anonymous, unnamed,<br />
as Will doesn’t want the viewer to be<br />
given any suggestions of a p<strong>art</strong>icular<br />
place. In this work he is exploring the<br />
relationship between positive and<br />
negative spaces, black and white<br />
compositions and 3D shapes in the<br />
architectural landscape. The dark<br />
void of the building is there for the<br />
viewer to contemplate and imagine<br />
what forms it may contain. The void is<br />
intended to resonate with each viewer<br />
and be interpreted in a personal way.<br />
Will teaches within the photography<br />
dep<strong>art</strong>ment at The Adelaide <strong>College</strong><br />
of the Arts where he enjoys inspiring<br />
students with his passion. We are very<br />
fortunate to have Will Nolan p<strong>art</strong>icipate<br />
in SpringART <strong>2011</strong>. No doubt we will<br />
all be inspired by the <strong>art</strong>istry of Will’s<br />
photography.<br />

The SALife Emerging Artist Award<br />
has been won by Debra Morley. Art’s<br />
Editor, Lance Campbell commented<br />
that reviewing the short list applicants<br />
wasn’t easy but felt Debra’s work<br />
displayed a greater level of curiosity.<br />
Debra recently graduated from<br />
Adelaide Central School of<br />
Art with Honours (BVA 2010)<br />
and is continuing to explore<br />
the transformative qualities of time<br />
and gravity on the human form in<br />
these three dimensional figures. She<br />
utilises layering and found materials<br />
allowing the material to create its<br />
own aesthetic. SALife editor Jacqui<br />
Williams handed Debra a cheque<br />
for $1000 at a special SALA event<br />
held in August hosted by The Lion<br />
Hotel. Debra will be supported and<br />
featured both by SALife Magazine<br />
and at this SpringART <strong>exhibition</strong>.

Photography is the chosen medium<br />
for Will Nolan, the Spring Art feature<br />
<strong>art</strong>ist for <strong>2011</strong>. As viewers of <strong>art</strong> in<br />
an image saturated world we have a<br />
facility to engage with photography<br />
in its various forms. What makes a<br />
photograph an <strong>art</strong>work is a common<br />
question with which students and<br />
viewers of <strong>art</strong> grapple. If anyone can<br />
take a photograph, is it simply a matter<br />
of being in the right place at the right<br />
time to capture the moment What<br />
is it that distinguishes a photograph<br />
as an <strong>art</strong>work Unlike painting where<br />
brushes and paint are the tools used<br />
to carry the painter’s vision onto the<br />
canvas, a mechanical devise, the<br />
camera stands between the <strong>art</strong>ist<br />
photographer and their subject.<br />
Photographers, like painters balance<br />
the technical considerations of their<br />
chosen medium to communicate<br />
their vision. Significant <strong>art</strong>works<br />
communicate an <strong>art</strong>ist’s vision and<br />
have the power to touch us emotionally<br />
in very p<strong>art</strong>icular ways. The famous<br />
American photographer, Ansell Adams<br />
said, “There are always two people in<br />
every picture: the photographer and<br />
the viewer.”<br />

Jeweller<br />
James Thredgold has once again<br />
designed a unique piece of jewellery<br />
for SpringART. This one-off piece is<br />
our raffle prize. As always, it is simply<br />
beautiful and we expect raffle tickets<br />
will be highly sought after.<br />
In describing the creative process,<br />
James said that “This year’s<br />
photographic feature piece by<br />
Will Nolan was one of our biggest<br />
challenges from SpringART. The image<br />
is architectural and limited in shape<br />
and colour. We st<strong>art</strong>ed our design by<br />
drawing from the colour of the brick<br />
wall and used the tourmaline in the<br />
main stone, which glows purple/red.<br />
The linear white gold on the sides<br />
and bail portray the mortar, which is<br />
as essential as this holds the whole<br />
structure together. The black used<br />
in the neoprene is the shadow cast<br />
from above and the diamonds weren’t<br />
necessary, I just love them!”<br />
Star Portrait<br />
Star Portrait is now in its fifth<br />
successful year in <strong>2011</strong>. Following the<br />
formula of the popular Rolf Harris ABC<br />
series of the same name, each year<br />
a prominent South Australian sits for<br />
our three talented <strong>art</strong>ists. Each <strong>art</strong>ist<br />
prepares a portrait of the sitter, to be<br />
unveiled at our Star Portrait event. We<br />
are pleased to announce that the <strong>2011</strong><br />
Star Portrait Artists are Lucy Bonnin,<br />
Andrea Malone and Mary Wagstaff.<br />
This year’s “Star Portrait” sitter is<br />
Tracey Whiting. Tracey is an old scholar<br />
of <strong>Loreto</strong> Marryatville and has a long<br />
involvement with <strong>Loreto</strong> SpringArt.<br />
Tracey is now on the board of Solstice<br />
Media and the Art Gallery of South<br />
Australia. She is Chair of the Art Gallery<br />
of South Australia’s Contemporary<br />
Collectors. The portrait process<br />
reveals the physical aspect but also<br />
an unveiling of a personality and an<br />
understanding of an <strong>art</strong>ist. Tracey will<br />
unveil the three finished portraits at<br />
SpringArt on Saturday 10th September<br />
at 2pm. Please join us in supporting<br />
Tracey as she views her three portraits<br />
for the first time.<br />
This event is made possible due to<br />
the valuable support of Premier Art<br />
Supplies.<br />

Welcome<br />
It is with much pleasure that I welcome you to the <strong>2011</strong> <strong>Loreto</strong><br />
Spring Art Exhibition.<br />
Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same<br />
time; it can evoke a kaleidoscope of emotions — fun, peace,<br />
freedom, tension, justice, fear, love — depending on how the<br />
viewer interprets the colours, images and symbols used. Art<br />
affords us the opportunities for self-expression where the <strong>art</strong>ist<br />
can communicate an interpretation or vision of aspects of his<br />
or her world.<br />
At <strong>Loreto</strong>, creativity is encouraged in our students and the<br />
collection in this year’s Spring Art Exhibition links well with the<br />
focus this year on ‘felicity’ in all <strong>Loreto</strong> schools in Australia.<br />
This notion of ‘felicity’ is nourished by fun and celebration, by<br />
beauty and creativity, by sensitivity to the natural environment<br />
and by opportunities for self-expression and for reflection — all<br />
of which are present here in our Spring Art collection.<br />
“A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps<br />
me company, comforts and inspires me.” Hedy Lamarr<br />
My hope is that you, too, may find “a friend” in this year’s <strong>art</strong><br />
collection, which will give you many years of pleasure and<br />
inspiration.<br />

Using clothing minimally decorated<br />
as subject matter for the freestanding<br />
ceramic sculptures, Wendy Alstergren’s<br />
intention is to create still and<br />
contemplative objects. The white<br />
e<strong>art</strong>henware objects in this instance<br />
remain as a conduit between cultures<br />
with her friend and Japanese fellow<br />
student at Adelaide Central School of<br />
Art, Shoko Imagawa.<br />
Judith Archer<br />
Judith is currently working as an <strong>art</strong><br />
teacher at Marryatville High School<br />
while continuing her <strong>art</strong> practise in<br />
painting and drawing. Her style has<br />
been disciplined by studies in life<br />
drawing at Adelaide Central School of<br />
Art and a highlight was the inclusion<br />
of her work in the Waterhouse Natural<br />
History Art Prize.<br />
Rebecca Arman<br />
Rebecca’s <strong>art</strong> this year has developed<br />
further in layering techniques using<br />
new and various mediums. She<br />
enthusiastically has continued to<br />
work on themes associated with the<br />
vibrancy of Venice and Paris. Rebecca’s<br />
enjoys sharing her unconventional<br />
approach to creativity and welcomes<br />
visitors, by appointment, to her studio<br />
at Carrickalinga.<br />
Alison Arnold<br />
Alison works from a studio in the<br />
Adelaide Hills where the native<br />
birds and plants inevitably influence<br />
her work. She loves pattern and<br />
often looks to the decorative <strong>art</strong>s<br />
for inspiration including textiles,<br />
wallpapers and fabrics for designs. She<br />
loves the challenge of concept based<br />
<strong>exhibition</strong> work as much as creating<br />
well-designed functional pots for<br />
everyday use. Her current focus is on<br />
developing a range of domestic ware<br />
alongside decorated porcelain bird and<br />
animal figurines, bowls and vases.<br />
Leah Badger<br />
Leah was <strong>Loreto</strong>’s Peoples Choice<br />
Award Winner at SpringART in 2010.<br />
She is drawn to the beauty of nature<br />
and it provides much of the inspiration<br />
for her work. Her paintings are held in<br />
both private and corporate collections.<br />

Annette Bezor<br />
Annette graduated from the South<br />
Australian School of Art in 1978.<br />
She has received numerous awards,<br />
including the Australian Council and<br />
Arts SA Fellowships. Her work is an<br />
examination of the depiction of women,<br />
both historically and in contempory<br />
culture. Annette uses repetition and<br />
twinning in her paintings as a means<br />
of examining these issues and the<br />
concept of idealised female beauty. In<br />
her current series of works, the figure<br />
is veiled, simultaneously revealed and<br />
submerged.<br />
Marina Bills<br />

Visual <strong>art</strong> has been an interest but<br />
rather more of a passion of Patrick’s<br />
for over 30 years. He completed<br />
a Degree in Education at Uni SA,<br />
specialising in Visual Arts and<br />
Psychology, while also studying <strong>art</strong><br />
at the Adelaide School of Art. He has<br />
two quite distinct styles of painting,<br />
impressionist and abstract. In both<br />
painting styles he prefers a vibrant<br />
and rich colour palette. He uses his<br />
extensive garden at Stirling in the<br />
Adelaide Hills as a constant inspiration.<br />
His abstract work has an almost<br />
“stained glass” quality which he<br />
finds precise yet almost hypnotic. He<br />
aims for his paintings to transfer the<br />
observer to a quiet and tranquil place.<br />
A place of peace.<br />

and memory is associated with the<br />
ocean, surf and surrounding coastal<br />
environment, reflecting an important<br />
source of inspiration for his paintings.<br />
Alan’s proven ability, commitment and<br />

Stephanie Crase has recently returned<br />
to Adelaide after two years travelling<br />
the UK and Europe. Fittingly, her latest<br />
oil and watercolour paintings reflect<br />
on both old memories and unfamiliar<br />
territories, subtly engaging themes of<br />
restlessness and longing, home and<br />

Georgina Hardy has been studying at<br />
the Central School of Art since 2003.<br />
Her preferred medium is oil — she<br />
has a painterly style and favours tonal<br />

unusual roosters. Recently Georgina<br />
has been experimenting with abstract.<br />
Helene Hardy<br />
Helene uses simple acrylics on<br />
stretched canvas to produce works<br />
that resonate deep, vivid emotion.<br />
From the depths of the ethereal to the<br />

to capture the essence of human<br />
feeling and strip it bare for all to see.<br />

Margaret Jennings<br />
Tjilkam<strong>art</strong>a was a rainmaker who<br />
had short arms. He was camping<br />
between two mobs, trying to get one<br />
mob to share their food with him. They<br />
teased him by holding out food, then<br />
snatching it away as he reached for it.<br />
He became angry, sang for a big cloud<br />
with hail and lightening, which killed<br />
the nasty mob.<br />

interest in geometry and the anatomy<br />
of both human and plant forms and<br />
her bold, graphic style is informed<br />

key elements in the work. A continuing<br />
energy to push the boundaries to<br />
explore the interpretation of the<br />
landscape (and still life) is foremost<br />
in Jenni’s fascination with executing<br />
the theory ‘colour vibrant with light’. A<br />

Thirty six year old self taught <strong>art</strong>ist<br />
Tom O’Callaghan has been painting full<br />

from his home studio in Victor Harbor,<br />
coastal South Australia. ‘My paintings<br />
are inspired by the visual world around<br />
me. I love to paint subjects with form.<br />
As light reveals form, I am drawn to<br />
those times of day when the light<br />
is most dramatic. The atmosphere<br />
and the colours of the Australian<br />
coastal landscape play a major role<br />
in my work. I enjoy discovering new<br />
compositions by finding a unique<br />
perspective to view the subject from.’<br />
Maria O’Daniel<br />
Much of Maria’s work is inspired by<br />
memories of growing up on a dairy<br />
farm in Holland. She spent many<br />
hours walking over paddocks picking<br />
wild flowers, while my father milked<br />
the cows, which she then made into<br />
chains and crowns with my mother’s<br />
help. She now uses many of those<br />
early memories, and popular textile<br />
techniques of the time, such as<br />
knitting or crocheting to create new<br />
contemporary jewellery items such as<br />

materials ebb and flow as she finds<br />
the best representation to express<br />

Sheree Wright<br />
Sheree Wright<br />
Sheree’s style is Tonal Realism, a<br />
unique and beautiful moment in time<br />
is conveyed with emotion to bring<br />
it to life. The viewer doesn’t share<br />
her interpretation — a person’s<br />
view of the world is a reflection of<br />
past experiences and their current<br />
reality. For Sheree, the ability to<br />
take a beautiful moment and give it<br />
added depth through paint is the true<br />
reward of her work. Finalist in the<br />
Cibo Galleria, Fleurieu Peninsula Water<br />
Prize, solo & group <strong>exhibition</strong>s.<br />
