'HEADCASE' by NANAMI COWDROY • SOLO ART SHOW
'HEADCASE' by NANAMI COWDROY @ DISORDER GALLERY. HEADCASE is a collection inspired by the craziness in the world over the last 2-years and a desire to escape into the playfulness, curiosity and love of nature we feel as children. Stuck inside and unable to travel, and being bombarded with daily images of illness, waste, displacement and suffering has turned many of us into ‘headcases’.

"Smoking Souls" is a mixed media composition using charcoal, Japanese Ink (black and...
Peace Pin - Donating to the Australian Bushfire Emergency Fund
Like many, I have been so overwhelmed and deeply heart broken witnessing the recent catastrophic bushfires which have been engulfing Australia from coast to coast... which, even now, continue to burn out of control. The devastation these fires are causing is unprecedented. People have lost loved ones, their homes and the WWF has reported that thousands of native Australian wildlife have died during these fires, their natural habitats having been wiped out and destroyed. It staggers belief, that one of our most famous animals - the Koala - could now be facing extinction. According to the World Wildlife Fund, Australia : ".. It’s been estimated that around 1.25 billion animals have been killed across Australia to date. This includes thousands of koalas and other iconic species such as kangaroos,...
