Overview

Pull of the Moon is a joint exhibition by Elisa Jane Carmichael and Ellie Anderson that explores and draws inspiration from the natural world — specifically, the effect of the moon. Their works mix together and stand alone singularly to create a truly unique set of art that adheres to a theme and creates a tonal vibe that encompasses lunar power and earthly wonder.

Based on and inspired by her recent travels in Mexico, Ellie Anderson has created works that look at the effect of the moon on aquatic life, using the pacific coast of Mexico as her focus. Ellie works with large canvases, ink drawings, and silkscreen prints on fabric and wood for her work, all of her work is incredibly detailed and visually striking.

Elisa Jane Carmichael creates art by painting, drawing, weaving, sculpting. In addition to this, certain works have been made with marine debris from the Quandamooka waters. Her work in this exhibition will focus on the moons effect on the tides, and the flotsam and jetsam those tides leave behind.
