The SCEGGS Visual Arts Department pride themselves on our extramural capacity as artists beyond our role as educators. We are proud to share information about one of our art assistants, Michaela Gleave and her first major solo institutional exhibition, Event Horizon<\/strong><\/a> which opens at Artspace<\/strong><\/a> on 5\u00a0March. Michaela\u2019s exhibition brings together installation, live performance, and sound, and represents the most substantial presentation of her work to date. This project draws on long-running investigations into deep time, cosmology, geology, and the limits of human perception, alongside new work made in direct response to the site.<\/p>\n

Michaela will also be unveiling a major new site-specific work In Another Light <\/em><\/strong>commissioned for SCEGGS as part of the Wilkinson House redevelopment.<\/p>\n

Michaela says: In Another Light celebrates SCEGGS as a beacon of learning and inspiration, drawing on the school\u2019s motto, \u201cLet Your Light Shine.\u201d The work reflects the radiance of each student\u2019s journey of self-discovery within a connected and supportive community, using light, reflection, and colour as both material and metaphor.<\/em><\/p>\n

Using infrared photography, a technique that reveals wavelengths beyond human sight, the installation becomes a way of thinking about hidden potential and inner brilliance. Centred on the Moreton Bay Fig Tree as a symbol of stability and growth, the glass transforms throughout the day as light shifts across its surface, activating colour, reflection, and depth. Through this interplay of form and illumination, In Another Light honours the transformative power of learning, connection, and creativity as something living, shared, and continually unfolding.<\/em><\/p>\n
