'Fallen Angel'
The gallery is pleased to announce that the painting
'Fallen Angel' - kindly donated by Alison Mead -
will be auctioned at the opening celebration for
- an exhibition of artworks by gallery members
on view from 27th May to 24th June 2016.
Proceeds of the auction will go to both the
Serpentine Community Gallery
and Heartfelt House;
a Northern Rivers organisation that aims
to provide support for adult survivors
of childhood sexual abuse
as well as their family and friends.
Alison Mead will also be exhibiting photographic
works (pictured right), which relate to this issue
of giving a voice to the victims of this 'silent crime'.
Often being children, the sexually abused
are frequently too frightened to speak out
and as adults are very often silenced by
social taboo and a sense of personal isolation.
Statement
by Alison Mead
A 'Fallen Angel' sleeps while her dreams are healing her.
Born innocent, survivors often find themselves
in places and spaces that are not safe.
Heartfelt House provides a safe cocoon
so the fallen ones can learn to fly.
