Read my review of Miriel Lenore's poetry collection in the garden in Cordite Poetry Review.





This is a detail from Micky Allan's engraved glass, polymer resin and pastel painting, Solar Dust II, from a wonderful exhibition called Inner Weather that just closed at the Tin Sheds Gallery in Sydney last weekend. But you can find out more about Micky Allan’s beautiful paintings by visiting her new website

Micky Allan and Steenus Von Steensen are exhibiting their collaborative works The Fall of Night I-IV, (2008 inkjet prints on paper), a montage of Canberra’s night skyline, lake and bush textures, that one reviewer described as "a Pink Floydesque shiver
of apprehension", as part of The Fall of Night: A Group Exhibition at Helen Maxwell Gallery, 42 Mort Street, Braddon, a component
of Vivid, the National Photography Festival, currently showing
all over Canberra.







Virginia Coventry has an exhibition coming up in Melbourne
