An inter-webbing enterprise towards aerial safety, spiders in the New South Wales town of Waga-Waga escaping flood-waters by emerging out of the landscape. The images are powerful and express the complex ingenuity of this kind of architectural practice. Similar events occurred in recent floods along Pakistan river systems. The webs allegorically describe a narrative of survival where all types of spider can be seen constructing the arc.

The project Biografi by Bernardo Vercelli uses pencil to follow the path of different insects on paper. Evident from different insects is the individual type of movement and exploration on the page. Somehow I felt this concept effective and strong in being reflective of our own confused microcosm as we each discover the world in a unique way.

Artist Jim Hodges installation comprises of four 8-13 tonne boulders clad in different colour highly polished steel surfaces. The piece is described as an unmediated recreation of how the boulders would be found in the natural landscape where the aim is to experience the colour refractions with the surrounding light of the gallery space.

Whilst producing a strong visual effect, the boulders represent a reverbaration of their origins in the natural landscape due to their overwhelming size and exposure of the rock's surface.
