Sophia Watson

'Sirocco'

charcoal & pastel on paper

from It's the Little Things

December 2015

From 25 November to 8 December 2015,

the Serpentine will be the venue for two solo shows

Sophia Watson's 'Erosion'

and Robyn Staines's 'Dark Matter.'

The double opening celebration will take place

at 6pm on 27th November 2015. Everyone is welcome.

Both North Coast TAFE Visual Arts students,

Robyn and Sophia have created bodies of work for their exhibitions

which explore the concept of narcissistic abuse.

While the works in 'Erosion' focus on the abuse of power,

those of 'Dark Matter' investigate what creates violence in relationships.

EROSION:

Sophia’s abstract charcoal drawings are an exploration of the abuse of power

within the context of religion, intimate relationships and culture.

She examines the erosion of identity, self-esteem and trust

and how this undermines personal empowerment and freedom.
