Solo Show by Christy Mitchell

Whether sent from the universe or embedded in our DNA, messages and events can suddenly arrive and change the course of our lives.
Artist Christy Mitchell creates a solo show each November to decipher and express those moments from the previous year. In ‘Point of Impact’ she tackles the hard reality of caring for family members struggling with their mental health.
Appearing in waves, hitting hard like an asteroid making contact with Earth, watching a loved one go through crisis can feel like the end of the world. An impact event is where there is a collision between astronomical objects, some causing catastrophic consequences. In this exhibition, Christy attempts to illustrate what navigating life in the middle of a meteor shower may look like, with assemblages and objects being thrown together creating a beautiful, chaotic, and often scary landscape.
