Sadie Chandler

Opening Tuesday 30 October, 6:45pm - 8:00pm


Sadie Chandler has exhibited widely over the past twenty years in artist run initiatives, dealer galleries and institutions. Works are held in National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria and other major and private collections. Chandler works across a variety of mediums embracing sculpture, painting, drawing, video, installation and wallpaper.


For Stuff for Aches & Pains 2012, Chandler created a series of paintings on canvas using her distinctive style of floating objects on flat backgrounds. Individual works vary but are united by a playful, animated approach which extends beyond decoration. Chandler has encountered and overcome personal medical obstacles but this work should not be taken as documentation of her journey, or as whimsical ephemera. Included in Stuff for Aches and Pains are scatter pieces, tiny objects of flotsam and jetsam from everyday life, medical paraphernalia, pills and bottles as well as larger single images. Stuff for Aches and Pains is a celebration of the rhythmic pattern and nuances of still life.
