Return to the spontaneity, freedom, simplicity and escapism of childhood with Polixeni Papapetrou's cinematic images of self-determined young girls at play.
With the landscape of rural Australia as a recurring backdrop - representing a space full of possibility and devoid of constraints - the artist is drawing on childhood memories of unregimented play, and the times she spent with friends outside the home discovering worlds beyond her own.
Also opening on Thursday night at Stills Gallery is Beverley Veasey's HABITATS, a series of black and white images of stark, man-made spaces devoid of life or movement; an interesting contrast alongside Papapetrou's spontaneous depictions of children playing in the bush.
