Nicolette Worth’s exhibition is based around sneakers and urban culture. Each piece of artwork has been created in a different light, depending on the sneaker, as sneakers show many different characters. Some fun and exciting, some harder to read, but all colourful and happy.
Nicolette’s work is influenced by Australian and American hip-hop culture, graffiti and street art, Indigenous Australian art, Indian art, African art and the decorative era of the 1960s. Her art contains a lot of collage layering, different textures, as well as stencilling, scratching and drawing.
“Sneakers are my passion and my love, art is my talent, and so I enjoy joining these two passions together… I hope to give off a contemporary and different feel to my take on what sneaker art is and how it can be expressed.”
Nicolette has completed a Diploma in Visual Arts. In 2009, her sneaker art was exhibited in New York.

Pop Robot Theatre presents Falling Petals by Ben Ellis as a part of JUTE Theatre's Indie Season, 2010.
This production is produced by emerging practitioners studying the creative industries at JCU, Cairns. Come along and support local theatre practitioners.
‘Falling Petals’ is a darkly comic fable about the consequences of a culture of disposable youth. The rural township of Hollow has a problem. A mysterious epidemic that only affects the young has broken out and threatens to reach disastrous proportions. The school is closed, the town is quarantined and panic runs rife. Three school-leavers are caught in the disease-ridden town, unable to sit their final exams, trapped in a community with no future. Part sci-fi, part satire, this play by Ben Ellis blasts the urban/rural fissure wide open.
Featuring: Michael Elliott, Laura Pegrum, Liz Hurley, Shaneen Mason and Jim Hill
Director: Victoria Carless
Designers: Lauren Hall and Alison Ross
Lighting Designer: Matt Cox
Sound Designer: Jessy Lynch

The Indie Season project kicked off in 2008 and continued in 2009. This is a long-term commitment and in 2010, JUTE will again provide a regional independent theatre maker with the opportunity to produce their own work.
JUTE has no creative control over the production but provides support with a financial investment of $5000 for the producer. JUTE Theatre’s Artistic Director, Operations/ Marketing Manager and the Production Manager all provide practical advice to the producer. JUTE also engages a professional designer to consult with the producer but takes no part in the creative decision-making. The Independent Producer retains the box office from the season.
The Independent producer was chosen through a competitive submission process with submissions assessed by a panel including the Artistic Director, the Associate Director and one independent assessor from the professional theatre sector.
POP Robot Theatre Group are the successful applicants for 2010.

It took a musical adventure spanning four continents for Grinspoon to find the key to shaking up the Australian rock scene. Firstly, bassist Joe Hansen made his way to Canada and set himself on a path to brutal speed metal utopia. Guitarist Pat Davern ventured to Amsterdam and Spain in search of some elusive monstrous riffs. Frontman Phil Jamieson found his calling in Singapore, collaborating with a friend on glorious dream pop tunes. Meanwhile, drummer Kristian Hopes found a world of inspiration at home in Brisbane with his new baby son.
Their epic quest to find rock’s holy grail eventually led them home to make the best album of their 14-year career, cementing their position at the helm of the local rock scene. The band’s history speaks for itself.
Their sixth album, Six To Midnight, only reinforces their status as the premier rock act in the country. Drawing from around 45 songs penned individually and in sessions at Port Macquarie and Myocum on the NSW North Coast, Grinspoon convened to Studios 301 in Byron Bay with acclaimed US producer Rick Will (Incubus, No Doubt, Gillian Welch, Skindred). Conscious of not slipping into old habits, the band recorded together, live, for the first time in a decade. The result is a tight, frenetic and tense rock album, brimming with energy and buoyant enthusiasm.
From Canada to Spain, Amsterdam and Singapore, Six To Midnight now finds a home in Australia on Grinspoon’s new imprint, Chk Chk Boom records. It’s an exciting new era for a band whose endurance is as much to do with their immense talent as their sheer determination.
