Her Name is Flora is a celebration of feminine depictions of the female form in nature, tinted with the rose-hued eye and wonderment of the girlish gaze.
It is an exhibition spanning film, photography, painting and textiles (maybe even a sneaky plant or two!) – arising from a mutual fascination with the female figure and native flora, landscapes and dreamscapes. This exhibition is a culmination of two feminine approaches to the subject matter in an array of complementary mediums.
So please come and Join us for the opening night – there’ll be sweet tunes, a free keg of beer, and flora galore! Wear a posy in your buttonhole or a sprig of flowers atop your head to contribute to the exhibition in your own small and charming way.

Caitlin’s work delves into the essence of female experience, exploring themes of romance, obsession and self-analysis. Surface design, illustrated garments and diary-keeping are all strong cues in Caitlin’s repertoire – utilising these methods she creates a succinct world rich with a personal visual language.
