Lismore visual artist,

Mary Adams invites you to her new show

Opening night - Friday the 5th of June 2015,

6-8pm. All welcome!

On view: 3-16 June 2015

For "Deeply Superficial",

Mary has produced sweaters featuring tributes

to rock and roll stars past and present,

legendary ladies of song and screen

and some fab ads and famous firsts.

AND, for the first time ever in 3D,

using ChromaDepth technology,

she has produced a range of sweaters

paying homage to some of Lou Reed ‘s finest songs

and great masters in the world of art.

On Wednesday August 27th 2014

a rather unique show will open at the Serpentine Community Gallery

a knitted tribute to Lou Reed

and the 40th anniversary of his first Australian tour.

The show is the result of a collaboration between

Mary Adams, a visual artist who now lives in Lismore,

and local photographer Katrina Mathieson.

Mary Adams and Katrina Mathieson

Mary Adams has worked in the medium of knitting

for over 40 years, producing hand loomed garments in pure wool

using a range of images from popular culture.

For "I'll be your mirror", Mary has produced

50 sweaters representing Lou Reed albums and songs.

Photographs taken by Ms Mathieson

show people modelling the jumpers at locations

such as The Channon Market and Lismore's Back Alley Gallery.

Join us on the 27th August 2014 at 6pm for the opening night.

"I'll be your mirror"

runs from 27th August until 2nd September 2014.
