Overview

From a young age we experience the physical manifestation of our emotions in our stomachs. Anxiety is often presented as an uncomfortable tumbling sensation, intense rage or worry can be enough to make us sick and the nerves before a performance can flutter around our tummies for days. Every mother drums it into their child to 'follow their gut' as a source of intuition and Brisbane artist Sarah Hickey has done just that in her latest exhibition, Viscera.

In her exhibition, Viscera, Hickey presents her fascination with the powerful connection between physical and emotional. Her beautiful and captivating series of female idols present a unique insight into each individual's connection between their soul and intuition. The showcase includes women from varying cultures yet all exude a unique femininity and power. This established artist has not only completed bachelor degrees in fine arts and education, she has taught students her skills at Queensland high schools.

The exhibition is available for viewing from 10am – 6pm. Head along to the opening night, Friday 13 December 5pm-8pm and become immersed in this intriguing aspect of humanity.
