The Emerging Artists Development Program [EADP] works with referees from the Special Circumstances Courts in Brisbane and has been running on “less than average” funds for years now. The program is mentor and relationship based and aims for the participants to expand their arts skills into canvas work, screen-printing and drawing. This is a unique program that over the past 5 years has given leadership in the arts and social services sectors in Brisbane and plays a significant part in the development of troubled youth, the growth of emerging artists and a positive application of the rule of law through the judicial system. 50/50 is a fundraiser exhibition bringing together emerging mid-career and developing artists. These artists donate their work to be sold by Silent Auction beginning at $50 with the intention of supporting Jugglers and the EADP. The exhibition organisers and curators are Yannick Blattner, Clinton Cunningham, Jaclyn Bates and Char Chamez. The opening night is February 3rd 2012. |

Jake Sun explores a variety of conceptual approaches in his work. This includes the recurring exploration of metaphysical notions. Having adopted an ‘And’ instead of ‘Or’ philosophy of inclusivity, Jake has developed a rhizomatic practice which spans a variety of mediums including installation, sculpture, video, photography, performance, text and digital media. Jake exhibits regularly, most recently as part of Accidentally Annie StreetSpace’s Roma St Transit Centre project.
