This interactive exhibition works to recreate the themes and imagery of old children’s books into a new, modern and inclusive series of artworks. It looks at generating new ideas of what a magical Australiana looks like by combining elements of what is Australian, fantastical and ordinary together to create a series of characters, settings and objects that are relevant to what a modern fairytale in Australia would look like.

In 2018, Marie Widolf  opened her first solo exhibition at Waverley Library Galleries,  and introduced us to the whimsical world of her cartoon-character Gertrude – The Gal That Couldn’t Cook. The 34 artworks explored Gertrude’s unconventional relationship with her kitchen: her character was prone to daydreaming,  and her cooking-ingredients escaped from her mixing-bowl!
