Artist’s statement from Danielle Joy Golding 16/3/2025

This body of work, collection of work, is basically 35 pieces, in diameter, and come from drawn-out sessions during later Covid, during just last year. Covid isn’t ended, but my works were created anyway, and I have varied the medias used, for example, you will see silk paintings here, and digital art, and the usual oil paintings on board, with Botanical Flowers, every-day portraits, looking closely at color, linework, ambience and my semi-delicate works here on Habotai silk, paper and canvas board, with inks and oil and the Procreate program on my Pad and Apple Pencil.

The digital art is shown here with a number of staff and client portraiture, from Wayside Bondi, and Procreate was used for these, but not artifical intelligence. My handwork is on the portraiture drawings, and the artistic decision-making, also, the oil paintings, about 12 figurative paintings, basically figurative women, hopefully, not over-commercialized women, an old theme of mine was once commercialisations of Women, magazine women, cosmetic and aesthetic images, of women. Some time ago, I had an exhibition of such works.

Most of the works here are for sale, unless otherwise stated, the price listing and room sheets are available, and names, prices and works included, all works are furtherly negotiable and modestly priced, the works listed are all from my recent collection of works, called “New Works” and all created during 2024 and 2025.

Brief Artist’s Bio:

I have 12 years of art study behind me at NAS Art School, at St George Tafe and Sydney University, and this is my fourth exhibition at the TAP Art Gallery. I have had three here before: “Down and out and other Disprivileged“, ”On the Curve of Her Psyche”, and “QLD and Other images,” in the past five years. I have had experience in other Galleries, but the TAP Art Gallery Is famiiar to me now, as well.

I live in Bondi, where I have lived for thirty five years, as a local, and work studiously in my converted Studio, I could do more work but I spend a lot of my time musing, so that is what happens, with me, on my own, and I try to pull myself into Reality and work (because when will it be recognized as real work?

I would ike to thank Rosie and Lesley and Jacqui for all and any assistence with this exhibition. And I would like to tell everyone, that art is achievable for evrone, if not to do, then to watch as an audience. It’s there for everyone. .

Almost Famous Group Show 2025

Phil Austin - Monokrom Mardi Geras - TAP Gallery

MONOKROM Mardi Gras – Phil Austin Opens Tuesday 17th 6pm.

PHIL AUSTIN

Phil Austin is a street photographer focused on capturing honest moments of self-expression. At Sydney Mardi Gras, he uses black and white photography to document the power of people being unapologetically themselves. Stripping away color puts focus on emotion, gesture, and human connection — revealing stories that might otherwise be lost in the noise. Phil’s work aims to show that authenticity isn’t just a personal choice, but a public statement with the power to inspire change.t with the power to inspire change.Monokrom Mardi Gras – Phil Austin

PEOPLE OF A TIME AND PLACE – Razorhurst Series – an exhibition by Sean Burgess 2-15 June. Opening function WED 4th June 6pm

People of a Time and Place – Razorhurst II

People of a Time and Place - Razorhurst - Sean Burgess - Tap Gallery
People of a Time & Place Volume II: Razorhurst Series
TAP Gallery | 2–15 June 2025

Sydney wasn’t built on sunshine. It was shaped in the backstreets — by villains, fighters, and survivors who clawed for scraps of power, pride, and survival.

In People of a Time & Place: Volume II, Sydney painter Sean Burgess drags Razorhurst’s ghosts back into the light. Not the polished legends — the raw ones. The bloody, broken, defiant ones. The faces that built the city’s backbone long before the harbour sparkled for postcards.

This is the Sydney they don’t put in the brochures: sharp-edged, restless, alive. Each canvas pulls from a time when life was brutal and every choice left a scar. Burgess doesn’t whisper their stories — he spits them back into the world with grit under his nails.

Artesque: villains, fighters, survivors — no apologies, no pretty endings. Just the truth of a city born fighting.

Wed 4th June 6pm: Show open!
Sat 7th June 6pm: “The Shivoo!

– Live music, free drinks and a guided tour with the artist.
