An exhibition showcasing the natural rustic bushland beauty of Newport Lake and the joy of dance will open at The Outside Gallery on August 16.
Lake Dance, by Robyn Singleton and Cat Bukor, features photographic stills of dancers on the stepping stones of Newport Lake.
Singleton and Bukor met through the Williamstown Camera Club.
In one of the artworks shot by Bukor via drone, the Australian Vietnamese arts and culture dance group is seen on the stones.
Singleton said this was her favourite artwork as its “beautiful and serene”.
“We’ve got so many dancers in the community and its one of those things that bring joy and that’s what Newport reminds me of,” she said.
“That the joy and serenity in dance combined with that peaceful feeling you get from Newport Lake … putting the two together seemed quite obvious.”
The exhibition is open until January at The Outside Gallery in Paine Reserve, Newport.
