Carolyn Cardinet: Visual Art Blog

We have found in our area that many trolleys are pushed back to the streets the very next day  after they were used beyond the supermarket realm So a new project was born….wait and see  soon here

Great artwork by YYS video students to project their own video footage on  Cannot wait to see the whole project when finished

So so exited developing and creating new work in the studio this week. The more I work with this material I realise how much more awesome it is! Giving me so much flexibility, possibilities and pleasure to work with. Not counting the never ending supply of a discarded material available daily. A new work to create awareness of our plastic consumption and its effect on our eco-system

Spectacle @YarraCity is coming soon! Great sign @YarraYouthServices

What an opportunity to have this 3 months residency at the Yarra Youth Services in Fitzroy. There is a large art room where I can work on my own personal projects which are a solo exhibition at the St Kilda Town hall and a large immersive installation at the Bayside Corporate centre in Sandringham both in July this year. I also have the occasion to work with local teenagers as the YYS open their doors 4-6 pm week nights to fashion, video, sound, dance, theatre and open studio workshops. I have the occasion to facilitate art classes & sculpture projects. As an artist in residence you will have the occasion to involve yourself in the larger community programs. Spreading your art possibilities and capabilities. Programs such as Sustainability, Spectacle a day on the green, Gertrude St Projection Featival and more... And you can also help out with a  little bit of cleaning, rearranging and planting. What an opportunity to be here in this community. I  just love being here. Wor...
