Focusing on the region’s many dams—iconic features that shape both ecology and imagination—Matthews reflects on how these bodies of water hold memory\, sustain life\, and mirror shifting skies. His work captures the delicate interplay between environment\, identity and belonging\, shaped by more than three decades of living and working in Armidale. Water is both an artistic and personal journey\, offering a contemplative view of landscape as a site of renewal\, reflection and deep connection. \n\n \nImage: Rowen Matthews\, Water (exhibition view)\, 2025.

As part of the closing weekend of How to weather together\, the curator Jennifer Hamilton is hosting a poetry gathering for poetry readers and writers. The general topic for the gathering is “weathering” broadly understood. Weathering can be literal\, very metaphorical or a combination of the two. \nBring a poem or two to read and discuss. You also might want to branch out to think about climate/climate change and environmental crisis. Poems can be from any time in history; authored by yourself or another. Even if the connection to weather/weathering is extremely tangential the poem is welcome. Being able to read the poem and share the connection with the theme in discussion is the purpose. \nIf we run out of things to talk about we will practice “Close Meteorology” together and generate some found poetry out of our observations. \n  \nFREE EVENT \nREGISTRATION ESSENTIAL URL:https://neram.dev.nucleoserver.com/event/closing-weekend-of-how-to-weather-together/ CATEGORIES:Event,Workshops ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://neram.com.au/content/uploads/2026/01/HTWT.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260131T140000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260131T160000 DTSTAMP:20260604T095418 CREATED:20260114T060026Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260114T060116Z UID:40129-1769868000-1769875200@neram.dev.nucleoserver.com SUMMARY:Workshop: Stitching Signs for Future Living DESCRIPTION:Join artist Rae Haynes at NERAM for a hands-on creative session inspired by their series Signs for Future Living on show as part of the exhibition How To Weather Together. 10 Signs for Future Living draws together 10 feminist protest slogans\, interweaving demands for climate\, gender and social justice – all fundamental to the state of future living.\n\n\nIn this workshop\, you’ll transform threads\, fabric scraps and leftover materials through embroidery\, cross-stitch and applique techniques into bold Feminist Badges and Banners\, complete with text to make your message loud and proud. DIY badges and banners have long been a powerful tool in feminist activism as portable statements of identity\, solidarity\, and protest. Wear yours as a personal declaration or share it with someone who needs encouragement or empowerment.\n\n\nNo experience is needed and all materials are provided— just bring your curiosity and love for making. Let’s stitch\, subvert\, and celebrate feminist voices together.\n\n\nWorkshop is free but spaces are limited and bookings essential.

One minute they’re sweet\, funny little humans. The next\, they’re parroting some podcast bro who insists “patriarchy isn’t real” and “grindset” is a personality. \nShows like Adolescence and books like The Anxious Generation tapped a nerve. As toxic masculinity is loudly (and often rightly) called out\, a generation of boys is confused and ashamed – and the algorithm is happy to lead them down dark alt-right rabbit holes. It’s part of the reason the Australian government introduced age restrictions for social media accounts. \nSo how do we cut through the bro-fluencer noise to raise resilient\, emotionally literate boys?Investigative journalist Jess Hill (See What You Made Me Do) and clinical researcher and men’s mental health expert Zac Seidler unpack the cultural forces shaping boys today and how adults can guide them with compassion. \nZADIE SMITH\, hosted by Michaela Kalowski\n1:00pm – 2:00pm AEDT – Live \nLiterary powerhouse and north-west London legend\, Zadie Smith unpacks our cultural chaos with both subtlety and precision. When the best ideas risk being flattened into feed-friendly takes\, she dares us to resist the comfort of simple narratives. \nBuckle up for an eye-opening conversation inspired by her latest essay collection\, Dead and Alive\, which spans politics on both sides of the Atlantic\, cinema\, galleries\, Glastonbury and the question of who gets to make art. \nWith her trademark mix of intellect and irreverence\, Smith unpacks our culture. Expect razor-sharp insight and a reminder that in a fractious\, doomscrolling world\, curiosity is always our best line of defence. \n\nHow to Watch\nDate: Sunday 8th March\nTime: 10:30-11:30am & 1-2pm\nLocation: Mazda Gallery at the New England Regional Art Museum\nCost: $0 \n  URL:https://neram.dev.nucleoserver.com/event/all-about-women-2026-satellite-stream/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://neram.com.au/content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot_4-3-2026_104925_www.sydneyoperahouse.com_.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260314T100000 DTEND;TZID=Australia/Sydney:20260315T163000 DTSTAMP:20260604T095418 CREATED:20260219T005521Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260219T005616Z UID:40513-1773482400-1773592200@neram.dev.nucleoserver.com SUMMARY:NERAMble: Art in the Garden DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Friends of NERAM\, Art in the Garden returns to the beautiful grounds of “Auchinlea\,” North Dumaresq\, on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 March 2026\, 10.00am–4.30pm daily. \nEnjoy a relaxed weekend of art\, gardens and community with sculpture\, watercolour and oil paintings\, pottery\, silversmith works\, plants\, autumn harvest stalls and unique treasures to discover — plus Devonshire teas and a raffle.

They form a continuance of the concerns outlined in her previous works about other Australian wetlands and their catchments and explore in paint Australia’s rapidly disappearing biodiversity. \n  \nA Journey in Miniature\nThis new exhibition from the Australian Society of Miniature Art will open a window into the world of contemporary miniature art. \nWhile miniature artworks convey all the beauty and power of a larger work\, they possess the added advantage of being a particularly personal object that draws the viewer in close\, creating a greater sense of intimacy with the work. \nMiniature artworks can be no more than 40cm perimeter and the subject matter must also be miniaturised\, with the technique in keeping with the spirit of miniaturisation. \n\nOpening Date: Fri 1st May 2026 \nTime: 6pm \nLocation: New England Regional Art Museum \nCost: FREE \n\n\n\n\nImage credit: A Journey in Miniature: Australian Society of Miniature Art\, 2026 URL:https://neram.dev.nucleoserver.com/event/opening-night-may-2026/ CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://neram.com.au/content/uploads/2026/04/NERAM2026_image_block.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
