September 2025 Art Exhibition – The World of Birds
The World of Birds is a group exhibition featuring six artists from the Geelong region: Jane Bashiruddin, Sue Boardman, Helen Seymour, Frank De Rosso, Michael Hannan and Tom Healey. The exhibition presents a diverse collection of 2D works across drawing, painting, printmaking, mixed media, photography and concrete poetry.
Exploring both traditional representation and varying degrees of abstraction, the works reflect not only on the beauty of birds themselves, but also on their behaviours, habitats and symbolic significance. Themes include mythology, migration, communication and ecology, offering audiences multiple perspectives on the enduring fascination and importance of birds in art and culture.
