Hemmant's List art Exhibition II

bevron was founded in 1996 by visual artist Ward A Squires whilst studying under Anne Lord, Ron McBurnie and Tate Adams at the JCU Lyre Bird Press print facilities. It had its first solo show RollyPolly at Umbrella Studios, Townsville in the following year.

bevron is an anti-brand, mimicking the outrageous pursuits of advertising and those who are consumed by it. It is a make-believe hybrid word derived from two well-known brands: Avon (cosmetics) and Breville (appliances).

Kerry Daley

Kerry Daley is a visual artist based in Brisbane, Australia. She holds a Fine Arts degree with majors in Drawing, Printmaking and Art History. Her practice spans a wide range of media.

Her current work responds to the accelerating loss of habitat and biodiversity with the careful depiction of plastic animal toys. These collected and treasured mass-produced objects replace the animals they imitate implying that nature is increasingly experienced through representation rather than direct encounter.

The fastidious attention to detail poses the uneasy suggestion that the synthetic replica is more present and accessible than the creature it imitates and the unsettling reality that the manufactured substitute may outlast or even replace the living animal itself. Ironically it is plastic, a material that contributes to environmental harm, that stands in for the very animals it threatens.

Paul Fairweather

Paul is a Brisbane-based Artist and Author, and a former award-winning architect; co-founder of Fairweather Proberts Architects (now Bureau Proberts).

Paul was a finalist in the Archibald Prize in 2001.

Over the years, Paul has worked with printmaking, ceramics, installations and video. Paul’s primary media are now oils and watercolours. His work ranges from wordplay to figurative, still life, landscape and seascapes.

He has recently published his first book, Bold, Brave and a bit Quirky. Ideas, illustrations, and stories about squeezing the creative juice out of life. Part memoir, part manifesto, illustrated with his quirky watercolours.

He was once described as equal parts Zen and Espresso, and likes to tickle parts of people’s brains they didn’t know they had with both his images and his words.

Paul is also co-founder of TEDxBrisbane and is co-host of The Common Creative Podcast.

Caroline Yuen

Caroline Yuen is a Malaysian-born, Brisbane-based qualified architect with a B.Arch from the University of Western Australia, and an emerging artist. Her design sensibility is akin to interior architecture, from custom joinery and furniture to lighting installation. Her artistic practice spans many mediums including canvas, metal and clay. Previously represented by Code Red gallery in Claremont, Yuen has since exhibited at Redhill Gallery in 2026, Flinders Lane Gallery in 2022, Innerspace Contemporary Art in 2019 and 2017, Metcalfe Gallery at the Brisbane Institute of art in 2017, and Monart Gallery in 2004.

Yuen’s artistic and architectural endeavors have seen her featured multiple times the Sunday Times and Australia House and Garden between 2002 to 2012. Her work is held in private collections throughout Australia.
Influenced by the Australian landscape, geometry and modernism, Yuen’s works focus on the study of form, spatial tension, and volumetric space through the medium of sculpture. Yuen manipulates basic materials of steel rods and sheets into contrapposto geometric forms. She encourages viewers to experience her works from multiple standpoints, to look in, around, and through. Not dissimilar to her own process of manipulation, the viewer creates and manipulates their own new experience of space.
Her sculptural practice balances between land and built form. Yuen’s artistic philosophy combines an appreciation of the rich cultural heritage of Australia meanwhile navigating her role as an artist and architect. Her involvement in the RAIA Queensland Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee and sustainable practices in architecture further informs her work.

The artform considers different ways of artistic interpretation through a migrant’s perspective.
