The Musical Garden

Ben Dollman, violin

Anna Webb, viola

Kim Worley, cello

Sunday 27 August, 3–4 pm
Lifeflow Studio

Enjoy an afternoon of musical delights from three Lifeflow members celebrating the wonders of nature… Plants, flowers and the patterns of natural life have been the source of inspiration for many composers over the centuries.

In this program you’ll hear vibrant music from 17th century England, gems from Johann Sebastian Bach’s ‘Goldberg Variations’, some earthy folk tunes from around the world and a few newly composed pieces on Australian flora and fauna for good measure!

Join us at the Lifeflow Studio for a fun and light-hearted wander through musical fields of green and gold.

SALA

SALA LIMINAL SPACE

About the Exhibition

Working with geometric forms and the abstract spatial relationship between form, colour and space this collection of textile works explores the notion of liminality and transitory states.

Having worked as a designer & maker the artist embodies a deep interest in the current contemporary landscape and social fabric, and explores this in abstract form through rug making techniques.

Reflecting on the past year where the world as we knew it slowed or stopped, time and place became intangible as our collective mindset grappled with the realisation that we were no longer in the world we once knew, nor on the path we thought we were traveling. We are betwixt and between. We are in liminal space.

This exhibition Liminal Space seeks to provide an opportunity to experience the quality of ambiguity, to question the states of existence and to redefine the boundaries of identity in this pivotal transitory period in time.

A crisis brings us face to face with the main purpose of meditation. This is to develop the ability to keep our minds calm in the heat of the moment.

DR GRAHAM WILLIAMS

“A crisis brings us face to face with the main purpose of meditation. This is to develop the ability to keep our minds calm in the heat of the moment. We are then more able to see clearly, feel deeply and respond skilfully.

When an event, like the recent bushfires, hits us out of the blue, we need all the resources we can muster to deal with it. And being able to be mentally and emotionally steady is such an important one.”

This is a wonderful chance for the Lifeflow community to say thank you and give back to the Nairne CFS. 100% of the proceeds from the event will go towards purchasing additional equipment that can be used in the field. They are currently looking at purchasing a thermal imaging camera and a positive pressure fan.

Additional donations will be accepted on the night and a raffle will also be held. Don’t forget to bring some extra gold coins for the raffle 😊
