We love that the Kyogle region is home to such a vaste range of creative talents from a wide variety of disciplines.

Recently, KCM had the pleasure of meeting Bonalbo based artist, Marion Conrow, whose passion for projection, installation and sculpture makes her work quite literally ‘larger than life’.

love making large scale ethereal works that can evoke a feeling or atmosphere.

To me, art is about communicating in ways apart from words. This has lead me to create projection sculptures that appear holographic and are interactive. I love lush colours, objects, people, nature and buildings!

So nice to get the chance to talk about your art Marion. You have a very multidisciplinary approach - can you tell us a bit about what you create and why?

Can you tell us first about your connection to the local area?

I have just always had the drive to create since a child. I sustained a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury in 2007 from a car accident, .. so now even more I find my mind is constantly inventing things and observing.

I always have too many ideas! My arts practice is quiet complex and varied. I 8

Well, I’ve been living in the Northern Rivers since 1988. I am based in Bonalbo, which has such picturesque beauty; huge hoop pines with rustic views, a sense of peace, and it’s quiet. It’s a place where I can think.

My Bonalbo studio is a dream. It’s huge my work is usually large scale installations and sculptures - so now I have space to

CREATIVE

do big things. Works made here have gone to Falls Festival, and recently shown in international selections in Canberra and Sydney. It’s often seen by hundreds and thousands of people at festivals, though not many people know who I am as I tend to hide out a little!

There is a great circle of artists here and we can ‘feed into each other’ culturally.

We are also fortunate that Bonalbo has an arts alliance BAA, and the Roxy Gallery in Kyogle is an amazing exhibition space.

You had a car accident and survived brain injury - how did this experience change the way that you create and express yourself?

This is a huge question. My life totally stopped and changed. It was incredibly difficult; I lost most of my friends and became quite isolated. Even now I only have small windows where I can be with people. Creating was arduous, what I took for granted now had to be painstakingly broken down into baby steps. What is good is that I now have a new set of tools to see the world with. To have a disability that is invisible, gives you more empathy and understanding. There are things you just can’t really understand until you are there. I’m learning slowly to do advocacy having taken a place on the Accessible Arts lived experience panel so that is also new and interesting.

Disability in Response to COVID19”. I was shocked at how disability — along with age — is often swept aside, yet during COVID the world stopped to protect us? The arts were also neglected. I am fortunate that I was awarded funding from Create NSW and Australia Council for the Arts to pursue this idea.

Museum of My Friends#2 will be shown at a solo show at Belconnen Arts Centre in Canberra in November this year. It is interactive and will be on huge multiscreens and in Immersive Virtual Reality format with goggles. This is a new medium so there is lots to learn!

You have so many awards and career acknowledgment - what would you consider to be the highlight of your art career so far?

My highlight is receiving an Australia Council for the Arts grant to work with Urban Arts Projects. For this I got to work alongside my mentor Suzon Fuks to create an interactive screen sculpture for my last project - Museum of My Friends #1. I had received other acknowledgements before, but I felt that finally people looked at me and my work with respect!

To see more of Marion’s work (and to experience her projections with movement and light) go to www.marionconrow.com

Can you tell us about what ou are currently working on?

Here in Bonalbo I have a photo/film studio and sculpture studio set up, allowing my hybrid work to be made.

Having this peaceful creative space is so essential to me. My ability to block out noise, to concentrate and create are hindered significantly, it takes me 10-20 times as long to do things and only in windows where I am functional.

Currently I am working on my new project Museum Of My Friends #2 “Artists with

Working predominantly with print media, Jenny’s artwork is underpinned by a fascination and respect for the diverse beauty and complex relationships inherent in the natural world. She often uses the process of collage to build up complex and intricate images which interweave personal stories with universal themes.

The use of metaphor and symbols has become an integral part of her work.

LOCAL WRITER FEATURE

LINDA WOODROW

forests, the agriculture, the ocean will all be different from the ones I fell in love with in the 1980s. They are already different, but the future changes are likely to be much more confronting. Some of the characters remember and grieve for what is lost. But the Northern Rivers is one of the best places in the world to be, both physically and culturally, and along with grief, there’s hope.

What is your connection with Kyogle and the Northern Rivers?

I moved to Kyogle in 1983 as a young mum, as one of the founding members of Black Horse Creek Community. Our kids grew up here and it’s where I call ‘home’.

If you could impart one single message to the younger generation, what would it be?

Can you imagine a Northern Rivers plunged into chaos by soaring temperatures, rising tides and violent storms? Local author Linda Woodrow has explored the themes of human survival and climate change in her climate-fiction novel 470. Kyogle Culture chatted with her about the ideas behind the book.

The title of the book is intriguing in itself — can you tell us about the significance of 470, and why you chose it as the title?

It’s based on imagining what life might be like in a decade’s time, in a climate-changed future, not in a preachy way, but just putting characters in that situation and imagining what they would do with what life throws at them. I can’t imagine carbon dioxide levels peaking at anything less than 470 ppm, so it’s a story of life in that kind of world.

There are characters in 470 who are in their teens and early twenties now. The things that stand them in good stead in the 2030s are the kind of things that are common in young people growing up in this town. There is a certain independence and resilience, practicality, and a strong sense of community responsibility. They have skills that are valuable in any economy. They’re realists.

What will you be working on in 2021. Any more fiction on the horizon?

Many people have asked me for a sequel.

It is hard when you get to know and love characters, to let go of them. You want to know what happens next in their lives. It’s even harder for an author! If the curiosity gets too much for me, I’ll have to write it.

The local region features strongly in the book. What is it like imagining a future for the places you love?

Some parts of the future that climate change will bring are heartbreaking. The wildlife, the

THE FIRST CHAPTER:

Kyogle Writers Festival Kyogle will be buzzing with creativity during this year’s very first Kyogle Writers Festival.

A dedicated group of volunteers have come together in true Kyogle style to coordinate a 3-day festival that will feature traditional events such as panel discussions and writing workshops, alongside intimate conversation groups, live book readings, and book-themed events and entertainment.

The idea for the festival, which will run from the 14th to 16th of May, was sparked by recent local Susan Hughes. As a lover of literature and the arts, she was keen to find ways to support its growth in the area. “I joined the Kyogle Writers Group and teamed up with Graeme Gibson and Margit Zsigmond to look at ways to further support local writers and promote local creativity, and soon after that the Kyogle Writers Festival was born,” she explained. “We thought, what better way to foster and celebrate Kyogle’s unique 20

Kyogle Writers Group President Susan Hughes with fellow organisers Graeme Gibson and Paul Shields.

creative culture than to showcase it to the local community and visitors.”

“We’re developing an exciting and unique program,” said local writer Jarrah Dundler, who along with brother Dusk, and local writer Paul Shields, has joined the planning team. “In and around the more traditional festival events such as panels and workshops, there’ll be some diverse activities happening – live readings on the street, conversation groups, and activities that result in the production of new work.”

“We’re hoping the festival will further consolidate Kyogle’s reputation as a town where creative stuff happens and lead to further growth in this area,” Jarrah stated.

The festival will be held at various locations around Kyogle including the Kyogle Memorial Institute (KMI) Hall, the Roxy Gallery, the KMI supper rooms, the Kyogle Library, the Business Hive, and the Laneway Community Space.

Check www.kyoglewritersfestival.com for tickets and event information.

CREATIVE

The Roxy Gallery in Kyogle has packed its 2021 calendar with an amazing range of exhibitions that draw on the connection of place, the connection of literature and art, and the connection of community The Practicing Artists Network will create a visual journey into a Henry Lawson poem, ‘The Wandering Light’, that they used as the catalyst to drive their group exhibition.

A collective of artists from the Kyogle and District Arts Council Inc. will band together to show what their members create in fibre, fabric, print, paper, paint, metal and clay.

During the April period Sally Joyce will be taking us down the Lions Road in an exhibition of paintings, drawings and photographs exploring the magical road, its bridges and environment that many people traverse from Queensland to Kyogle.

Excitement continues throughout the whole of 2021 with the Roxy Gallery hosting exhibitors who either work in a professional capacity using their creative skills or just like to dabble in creating.

Other group shows coming up throughout this year will be from members of the Woodenbong Arts Group, and the six small schools combine once again for another COLOURSS exhibition.

Kyogle Writers Group will also join forces with local artists to do an exhibition based on visual interpretations of written works, and artists such as Tania Williams, Denis Hopking, Katie McGain and Paul Daley will bring to the gallery their individual collections of works in media including painting, ceramic sculpting, to explore subjects of the natural world to the profound state of the world.

The Business Hive The Business Hive, in Kyogle’s main street, is a place where business owners and creative entrepreneurs can cowork, create and connect.

They way we work is changing. Remote work and self-employment means more flexibility for many, and brings the opportunity to work in different spaces, and in different ways. Coworking is a global trend that offers a community of like-minded people to motivate and encourage each other, reducing the loneliness that working from home can cause. Working in this way also gives people a dedicated, focused place to create that is far more cost effective than having individual small office spaces.

CONTACT US (02) 5633 1319 94-100 Summerland Way, Kyogle hello@thebusinesshive.co www.thebusinesshive.co 42

The Business Hive opened in August 2020 and offers shared office space for remote workers, entrepreneurs and creative professionals on a casual, fulltime and part-time basis.

Owner Jasmine Phillips — who also runs design studio Wild Honey Creative located within the Hive — says the idea came out of her own desire to connect

with others. “One of the trickiest things about running your own business is that we often do it in isolation,” Jasmine described. “Here, people can connect, inspire and motivate each other.

Support has never been more important and you can find that here.”

“The Business Hive is a melting pot of passions; Entrepreneurship, creativity, community and well-being”, Jasmine explained. “We can work productively in an inspiring space, we can collaborate, watch great ideas collide, learn and share new skills, get creative and also look after our health and wellbeing,” she said. “It might seem like a strange concept to some, but looking after ourselves, and our community is crucial to having both a sustainable business and a life you love. We spend so much of our lives working, why not do it in a way that lights us up.”

After regular hours (and on weekends) the beautiful, art-deco building (which

used to be one of Kyogle’s original old banks) also doubles as a hive of activity for wellbeing and movement classes, workshops and networking events. There is yoga on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, regular networking events, and creative workshops on the weekends. The work desks roll away to make space for movers and shakers, then its back to ‘business as usual’ in the morning when members file in. Kyogle Culture Magazine is also made here; among many other creative offerings. “We love hosting creative and arts workshops from the regions best makers and creators. We have had paper making and stained glass, and have ceramics, journaling, collage and watercolour workshops planned for the year ahead.”

For more information on coworking and events, or to enquire about hiring the space for your workshop, check out www.thebusinesshive.co
