Art2muse a Vibrant Art Gallery Art2Muse A vibrant art gallery Located in the heart of Double Bay, Art2Muse Gallery attracts locals, designers, national and international art lovers who can also view and purchase artworks online. Established in 2001 by Katrina Hampton, Art2Muse Gallery represents a diverse range of artworks from 45 established artists at an affordable price. The gallery has been operating in Double Bay since 2008 with an exciting program of regular exhibitions and provides ongoing personalised service. In November 2014 Art2Muse Gallery was the first Australian gallery to be invited to participate in the Contemporary Istanbul Art Fair in Turkey. We offer a home consultation service to advise on artworks. An initial visit to your home or office will include photographing the space and discussing your preferences. We will then produce a catalogue of recommended artworks superimposed on your walls as a preview before trying the pieces in your home. The $150 consultation fee is then deducted from your first art purchase. Here is a selection of available artworks by Lara Scolari. Please feel free to contact us for high resolution photographs and catalogues of artworks you are interested in and to discuss your requirements.

In 2012 Lara embraced an artist residency in Sydney, this was the catalyst for change, and Lara now lives and works full time on her art making practice within her Hunters Hill Studio. Within Lara’s art making practice the mediums she focuses on exploring are Painting & Drawing (large scale, mixed media), Sculpture (clay – hand building), Printmaking (Collographs, and Relief), Digital Media as well as Textiles. Lara is also currently undertaking a Masters in Cross Disciplinary Arts and Design with COFA UNSW. Her work is produced in an Abstract Expressionist style, with focus on the use of line, organic shape, layering, and colour. Reflecting on personal experiences and discussing nurturing and love as well as the hidden undercurrents and agendas that are involved with these emotive states. Lara has expanded and developed this concept which informs an intimate visual language that is expressed within her work. Lara is an action painter and using developed experimental techniques and processes builds up layers of media focusing on composition. “As if diving beneath the surface (dreaming of what cannot be seen).” -

Criteria, performance indicators and triggers for further actions would be documented in the Groundwater Management Plan for the Proposal. 4.7 TERRESTRIAL ECOLOGY 4.7.1 Introduction The Director-General’s Requirements (DGRs) issued by DP&I identified “Biodiversity – as a key issue for assessment including: measures taken to avoid, reduce or mitigate impacts on biodiversity; accurate estimates of proposed vegetation clearing; a detailed assessment of potential impacts of the development on any: – terrestrial or aquatic threatened species or populations and their habitats, endangered ecological communities and groundwater dependent ecosystems; and – regionally significant remnant vegetation, or vegetation corridors; and – a comprehensive offset strategy to ensure the development maintains or improves the terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity values of the region in the medium to long term.” Additional matters for consideration in preparing the EIS were also provided in the correspondence attached to the DGRs from the NSW Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) which requested that biodiversity impacts be assessed using either the BioBanking Assessment Methodology or a detailed biodiversity assessment. OEH also made specific reference to the need for detailed survey and assessment of the Pink-tailed Worm-lizard, a threatened reptile species known from the location, and requested that assessment of the significance of direct and indirect impacts of the proposal be undertaken for threatened biodiversity known or considered likely to occur.

  • Section C: Historic Site Case Studies
    Section C: Historic Site Case Studies Chapter 5: Parramatta Park and Old Government House 5.1 Brief Historical Background of Parramatta James A. Michener, one of the most successful popularisers of history, always began his massive tomes with the beginning of time. Like Michener or his model Genesis, we could start a history of Parramatta with the lines ‘In the beginning’. This would mean that a history of the area would start with geology - how the Parramatta landform that played host to the organisms, human and otherwise that wriggled across it, was formed. For example, one might begin with the geological events surrounding the stabilisation of sea levels and the formation of the Parramatta River in its present state approximately 6,500 years ago (Kohen et al., 1999:5). Alternatively, one could go back as far as 10,000 years ago to the earliest 'firm evidence' of Aboriginal occupation at Darling Mills Creek, or perhaps 4,000 years ago, or between 1,000 and 2,000 years ago. These dates represent the various changes in stone tool technologies which Aboriginal people adopted (ibid.). Almost invariably histories written about the Parramatta area have traditionally chosen 1788 as their starting point and failed to acknowledge an Aboriginal presence beyond this date. This Euro-centric view of the Parramatta region is present in accounts written for audiences of all age levels. For example the National Trust produced an ‘education kit’ for schools in 1981 that ignored a history of the region that pre-dated the arrival of a handful of Europeans by millennia17.

As part of Council’s Management Plan and, in particular its Review of the five Urban Areas Development Strategies, Council initiated a review of heritage items in rural and urban areas in 2001 and 2004 respectively. This study is part of that overall review and its focus is on Dubbo’s urban areas. The general format of the study follows that recommended by NSW Heritage Office in its guideline document Community Based Heritage Studies. The project was grant funded from NSW Heritage Office. The study commenced in 2004 with the establishment of a community advisory group and preliminary research into places that the community might regard as significant to Dubbo, however progress on the study was delayed.
