SUMMARY:ART EXHIBITION Silt & Sky
DESCRIPTION:Silt and Sky explores the enduring imprint of the Australian landscape and the quiet ways a sense of place settles within us. Through shifting light\, colour and texture\, these works use abstraction as a visual language to express what is often felt but difficult to articulate — tracing the connection between landscape\, memory and emotion. \nBased on the Central Coast of New South Wales\, Kristy Fox is an abstract painter who finds inspiration for her art in every corner of nature. \nKristy’s style is earthy\, textural\, and deeply visceral. Layers of texture\, earthy tones\, and organic marks drawn from the natural world are abundantly evident across all of her paintings. \n“I paint in a way that embraces the beautiful chaos and quiet order of the natural world. Inspired by the wild\, untamed landscapes of Australia\, my pieces are as much a journey of self-exploration as they are an artistic expression.” – Kristy Fox

SUMMARY:Cirquosis - Roundabout Circus X Laycock Street Community Theatre
DESCRIPTION:What happens when we finally look up from our screens? \nRoundabout Circus and Laycock Street Theatre invite audiences to unplug\, reconnect and rediscover the joy of being human with Cirquosis\, an electrifying contemporary circus production created by the professional Circus Artists of Roundabout Circus. \nCelebrating a major milestone for the region’s live performance infrastructure\, Cirquosis will also be the first production to showcase the theatre’s upgraded aerial rigging system\, installed in consultation with Roundabout Circus. \nThe upgrades significantly expand Laycock Street Theatre’s aerial and circus capabilities\, enabling it to safely host a wider range of professional touring productions and large-scale aerial work. \nRoundabout Circus was engaged as a local consultant in the rigging design process\, and is now the first local organisation to bring the system to life on stage\, marking a significant step forward for Central Coast performing arts opportunities. \nThrough breathtaking aerials\, acrobatics\, juggling\, physical theatre\, dance and circus storytelling\, Cirquosis follows a journey from digital overload back into movement\, imagination\, community and real-world entertainment. \nCreated and performed by the Roundabout Circus crew\, the production showcases the extraordinary talent\, dedication and creativity of the Central Coast’s Community Circus\, while delivering a high-energy theatrical experience for audiences of all ages. \nRoundabout Circus founder Rachel Peters said the show reflects a challenge many families recognise.\n“We live in a world where people spend so much time looking down at devices\, notifications\, and the word ‘social’ has a new meaning.This show asks what happens when we look up again\,” she said.\n“Cirquosis is joyful\, powerful\, funny and deeply human. It celebrates play\, connection and the incredible things that happen when people are given space to be creative\, courageous and completely themselves.”
