In this weeks Inside Intermission episode we will be hearing from Georgia Milford in regards to their exciting new show, Softness in Burnt Things, which is published on Intermission Gallery's Instagram this week. Within the exhibition, Softness of Burnt Things offers a personal and intimate visual connection between object and personal transformation. These objects, having survived the 2009 Black Saturday bushfires along side artist Georgia Milford, allows the audience to resonate with the relationship between object, body, trauma and the elements of change. This exhibition allows the audience to treat themselves and the spaces around them with softness.
Knowing Me follows artist Emily Winslade's most influential works of her artistic career since enrolling in Fine Art studies. By viewing the online exhibition as a collection of works it is clear to see that self-portraiture and representation are common themes that she continuously explores. Each work acts as a conscious depiction of herself through an emphasis of identity and relationships. Whether that is the relationship with her body, queerness, gender and style or the relationships she has with those closest to her.

And now, for the audio description of ‘You May Perceive Me Now’: [gentle guitar music ends]AUDIO DESCRIPTION Kayla: ‘You May Perceive Me Now’ is exhibited in the Intermission Gallery space, a small yet spacious square room with white walls and a light-toned wooden floor.Wall number 1: When entering the space, the wall closest to the left has three rectangular photographic prints pinned in portrait orientation. The photographs have been taken in what looks to be a forest or bush area, and all of them include a mirror. There is a feminine-presenting person in a white dress in two of the photographs.On the same wall there are fifteen rectangular photographs arranged in a grid (three by five), all depicting a person with long hair dressed in black in front of a mirror. They are doing a variety of poses, and some of the photos have been digitally altered, with cartoonish shapes and drawings added over them.Wall number 2: On the adjacent wall, there is a painting done on a large rectangular canvas. The background of the composition is a solid black colour, and organic shapes in earthy brown tones have been painted on top of the black. The lighting of the painting is dramatic, and the abstract shapes and colour palette is reminiscent of bone or cartilage. To the right, this portrait is a more realistic depiction of a person who is wearing a red shirt which contrasts with the dark blue waves that form the background of the painting.The last works on this wall are four rectangular paintings arranged in a triangular formation. The three outermost works are in black frames while the centre painting is contained in a white frame. The outermost ones are united in colour palette (yellow, orange, brown earthy tones), and the backgrounds of each are reminiscent of Aboriginal dot painting techniques. The subject matter of all four features different body parts.Wall number 3: Hanging in the corner between the previous wall and the next is another work: three portrait photographs suspended on top of each other with strings that attach them to the adjacent walls.For the rest of the transcript, click this link: docs.google.com/document/d/1XHV7r…/edit?usp=sharing
