Emergence

Empowering women through body art & the creative process

Empowerment on all levels

Emergence is an exhibition of a large body of work that embraces vulnerability. The ‘Emergence’ concept was born from a desire to showcase the beauty & strength of vulnerability, the beauty of women and the power of the creative process.

Tracie Eaton made the decision to become her artwork. Instead of painting her creations on canvas, she became the canvas. Essentially, ‘Emergence’ is a self-reflection of the many stages and phases of life. Of the the emotions experienced, the joy and the challenges.

And most importantly to Tracie Eaton ‘Emergence’ reflected her own journey to owning and celebrating the person she is.

That is is time for us all to emerge – to step into the person you want to be, to create your life how you want to live it, & inspire others to do the same.

As Seal says “in a world full of people – only some learn to fly. Is that not crazy”….don’t let day to day challenges stop you from reaching your true potential. Fly…as high and as strong as you can…without restraint.

And it is these messages that flowed through the creations exhibited during the ‘Emergence’ event.

To reinforce the message of self acceptance and empowerment attendees were suprised with 6 women being body painted live by 6 established Gold Coat Artists – Rebecca Cunningham, Dean Cogle, Dion Parker, Llwellyn Skye, Kylie Finlay and Ana Diaz Severiche.
