Jhana Millers presents a series of new works by Erica van Zon in the gallery foyer.

Drawing her inspiration from her personal fascinations and encounters with the local and wider world, these works feature a range of imagery, from a Sixbar Wrasse, the Interislander Ferry, to a bottle of the traditional Dutch alcoholic beverage Advocaat.

Made over the last 6 months, these works are hand-embroidered, or hand-beaded, many with textured glass and hand-formed frames – and, like all of van Zon’s works, are joyful and infectious.
