Exhibition Dates: Friday 19 June – Saturday 18 July 2026

Exhibition Launch: 5.30pm, Thursday 18 June

Voyage dans la lune is an ode to the moon. It controls the ocean, revolves around us and has been imbedded in our history for as long as humans could convey stories and pictures. In this series of works, Poppy investigates the many interpretations of the moon and its meaning in different cultures around the world. Despite the vast array of varying representation, the wonder we share for the moon is consistent and unites us.

Poppy has made art for her whole life, exploring the joy of creating in many different mediums. She uses art as a tool to learn about herself, her emotions and helps her process the world around her. She is excited to continue learning, expanding her knowledge of art and engaging in creative opportunities.

Entry to the galleries is free.
