SONIA HACCIUS OPENING NIGHT AT SIGNAL ARTS CENTRE

A fabulous summer's night at Signal Arts Centre!  A lighthearted group of friends and art afficianados turned up to celebrate the work of former Signal Arts Centre staffer Sonia. All were impressed with the honesty and impact of the puppet tableaux and women were seen shaking with laughter at Sonia's interpretation of the three Fates showing the three stages of woman. The concept was only equalled by the craftsmanship.  I loved the tableaux but I have to say my favourite drawing was The Cougar, depicting an older woman offering lollipops to a young lad. Truly a unique exhibition not to be missed!

They are standing in front of The Darwin Awards, 'survival of the fittest theory' awarded to individuals doing something unbelievably stupid thereby removing themselves from the gene pool.
