During September through to November, Wyreena’s Arts Lounge will feature a group exhibition from YourDNA Creative Arts Collective. Featuring 2D and 3D work from members of YourDNA’s visual arts program, this exhibition explores the beauty and complexity of the world around us.

About the exhibition

The World Around Us

The World Around Us is beautiful, varied and complex, just like us. As individuals, we come together in shared moments of creative learning, yet each of us experiences the natural world with our own unique and curious perspective. What we see, hear, feel, smell, taste, think and experience shapes the way we create and how we create it. The World Around Us allows us to explore our external world as it affects our internal self. The way we view the natural world, interact with and capture it helps tell our separate stories. As artists with disability we create in our own way. We view the world in our own way. Our uniqueness is what makes our artwork so much more intriguing.

YourDNA Creative Arts brings together young adults with disability and provides a space for them to explore their authentic and artistic selves. New techniques are taught but each participant brings their own interpretation of it and how it all comes together. We encourage each participant to express themselves in their own way while always striving toward professional creative practice.

This exhibition showcases just a small amount of our work and abilities. We hope you enjoy the show.
