SUMMARY:SHIELD MAIDENS @ Bruns Picture House
DESCRIPTION:An all-female Viking circus spectacular!\nAfter a sellout run at Circus Arts\, SHIELD MAIDENS is back\, transforming the Brunswick Picture House into the Great Hall of the Vikings this solstice. Join us for a romp into the pagan celebration of an all-female Viking tribe! \nGather your tribe and see you there\, skol! \nABOUT SHIELD MAIDENS: \nShield Maidens is an all-female circus spectacular that tells a story of a tribe of Viking women\, their conflicts and battles\, using acrobatics\, aerial and fire to create a breathtaking experience. The women unapologetically inhabit an incredibly strong archetype — the dark force of the divine mother — her look wild with the passion of killing and ultimately\, survival. \nShow creator Alex Frith’s skills developed during a long career directing ground-breaking shows in Europe and the UK. His style is fast-paced and punchy with strong images and theatre effects. His unique mix of choreography and circus makes for high entertainment and Shield Maidens is no exception. \nLeather-clad women spin on ropes\, wield large axes and create a Viking world of harsh pagan landscape assisted by a dose of sequins and glitter to create a very engaging aesthetic. While safe in their seats\, the audience is able to be close to the action\, says Alex. “This is an immersive experience and you will feel like a part of the Viking world. \nThe show is an 18+ performance so leave the kids at home and liberate your Viking spirit. While not explicit or overtly violent\, it is directed toward adults in the spirit of a great party.” \nBrush off the winter blues and join us this June for a night to remember! \nDate/s: FRI 24 JUN @ 7PM\nSAT 25 JUN @ 7PM\nSUN 26 JUN @ 4PM \nDuration: Approximately 90 minutes. \nAge restrictions: 18+ \nIMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR TICKETHOLDERS: \nVENUE INFORMATION: Please note the Brunswick Picture House is located in Brunswick Heads NSW\, in the Northern Rivers region (NOT in Brunswick VIC).

SUMMARY:Lone Goat Gallery presents "Gabul Jagun – Carpet Snake Country"
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Name: Gabul Jagun – Carpet Snake Country\nArtist: Nickolla Clark\nDates: 25 June until 30 July 2022\nLocation: Lone Goat Gallery\, 28 Lawson St\, Byron Bay\nOpen: 10am until 4pm Wednesday to Saturdays\n \n\nNickolla Clark is a local Arakwal Bundjalung artist living and working on Country. Her exhibition ‘Gabul Jagun – Carpet Snake Country’ is a body of work showcasing aspects of Arakwal Country in the Byron Shire. \n‘Arakwal Jagun. My grandmother’s country from the Rainforest to the sea including the rivers\, sacred sites\, our creator and home Ironbark at Tallow Creek. This is ‘Gabul Jagun’\, Carpet Snake Country.’ \nMy practice highlights our important\, instinctive\, sacred connection to Country through key symbols\, features and knowledge that has been passed down through many generations. This practice has brought me closer to understanding and expressing the energy\, spirit\, cultural lore and stories from country and culture within each painting. \nThe exhibition explores my personal connection to the land and sea country with the many vibrant and subtle colours of my Country. The theme Gabul refers to my people’s totem\, the Carpet Snake. This is a good reflection on my heritage. Jagun is ‘Country’ which is fitting as all my artworks reflect the land in which we live and care for. \nThese pieces are a collection of my cultural expressions and I hope they evoke feelings of cultural insight and gratitude towards Country. Giving and receiving ‘Garimaa’ – Respect.’ Nickolla Clark\, 2022  \n\nLone Goat Gallery is a creative initiative of Byron Shire Council.
