C&B Furtniture - We Now Have CAD
We understand that committing to a piece of custom furniture without seeing it first can be a bit daunting, so we're thrilled that we can now offer fully rendered, life-like 3D CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings to show you how your custom piece will look.
We can even mix & match different timbers, colours and materials so you can see alternative versions of what the piece could potentially look like.
Click here for more info. or contact us at furniture@chapmanbailey.com.au or phone Macca or Mark on 03 99415 8666

Karen Boulden - The Bones of Angels @ C&B Gallery
Opening @ C&B Gallery - Tuesday April 3, 6-8 pm
Karen Boulden - The Bones of Angels
2 - 21 April 2012
“These works are both elemental and mystical; carnal and spiritual.”
Chapman & Bailey Gallery is proud to present the debut solo exhibition of artist Karen Boulden.
Boulden has combined two animal by-products: the bones of road-killed native animals, and hand-dyed natural silks, extracting a strange new visual language from processes of pattern and chance.
Like manifestations of an otherworldly intelligence, these works draw attention to “…mysterious associations: arrangements of bones appear to suggest something else entirely and traces of residual markings hint at alchemical processes.
“These works are both elemental and mystical; carnal and spiritual. There are clear references to land, nature, art and culture, less obvious are the traces of stigmata and cicatrix – the scars left from wounds.
“Yet there is also an underlying symmetry: intelligence is at work, drawing on deep psychological associations of birth, life, death and decay, presenting bone configurations like hieroglyphs that might even have interested our stone-age forebears. Yet those ancients would not know of our natural world in rapid decline, overrun by technology and a speeding culture. There may be no better symbol of this than the bones of nocturnal native animals slain beside a busy road.”
