Melanie Valentine: Active stillness
15 August – 5 October
Melanie Valentine is a multidisciplinary artist and designer working on Bundjalung Country. Inspired by the natural landscape, Melanie’s work reflects her deep connection to nature, using it as a metaphor to explore psychological and memory scapes.
Melanie’s exhibition Active stillness captures the tension between chaos and calm from the perspective of a neurodivergent artist. Each artwork serves as a visual journal: autobiographical snapshots blending symbolism and personal experience, documenting moments of emotional turbulence and the search for balance and stillness.
