Host note:
In this episode, Charles took us to the process of creation of Cyrus's new portrait works. The works are currently shown in her solo exhibition 'Golden Hour' at Arcone gallery. Charles did not only share his unique experience of being an participant in Cyrus's production, but also his insights and interpretation of Cyrus's works. As he unravelled his thoughts and options on Cyrus's works, he also unlocked some potion about his life and drew a self-portrait for us. Meanwhile, with her generous description of the works in Kyneton Contemporary, Monique presented a vivid image of this past art event. She highly spoke about the works she saw at Kyneton Contemporary. But she still honestly slipped in a critical comment on what KCT had missed. Monique also shared her critical views and disappointing feeling towards 'Dwelling Poetically' at ACCA.
Both Charles and Monique are excellent and eloquent speakers. I am sure you will get a lot from this episode. (pleases forgive and skip my 'dribbles'.)
I served Nicoise Salad for all the guests after the recording. Unfortunately, I did not take any photographs of the food this time.
