Council’s ARTBOX kicks off 2025 with its first exhibit, You Are Here by Kristen R MacKenzie. 

The exhibition will run from 3 January to 28 January, 2025, at Jacobsons Outlook in Nagambie, offering visitors a chance to experience Kristen’s imaginative and thought-provoking art. 

Kristen R MacKenzie, an accomplished artist holding a BA, Dip Ed, and MA in Visual Arts, draws on universal connectivity and the mysteries of existence to create works that blend humanity, nature, and otherworldly elements. 

Her paintings offer a window into mystical, multidimensional landscapes, inviting viewers to look beyond the surface and engage their imaginations. 

Strathbogie Shire Council Mayor, Cr Claire Ewart-Kennedy, said Kristen’s art captures the beauty of the moment and how everything is connected. 

‘It’s the perfect start to our 2025 ARTBOX season, offering inspiration and a sense of wonder. I encourage everyone to visit this amazing exhibition.’ 

‘The ARTBOX program continues to showcase the rich creative talent in our region, and Kristen’s work illustrates the caliber of artistry we have here in Strathbogie Shire.’ Cr Ewart-Kennedy said. 

‘Art continues to play an important role representing the amazing place we live. Our support of artists is crucial to a healthy, inclusive and accessible culture’ she added. 

Kristen will attend the exhibition on Saturday, 25 January, from 10am to 2pm, offering visitors an opportunity to meet her and learn more about the inspirations behind her work.
