Exhibition Highlight of the Week: Janice Appleton, Sin Guilt Fear I (no. 1, hand embroidery and paint on tea towels, 72 x 50 cm, $450).
Janice uses a collection of hand-embroidered tea towels, where she has continued the embroidery to cover the tea towels with messages found in women's magazines during the 1950's and 1960's about "being the perfect housewife". The artist then used red paint to spell out the underlying message behind the advertisements and advice.
The exhibition is current until May 30, 2015. View the exhibition online at
