About this event

Step behind the red curtain and into the world of the circus. Flips and Tricks is an exhibition of photography and paste-ups by Ian Sutherland, who has photographed the legendary Flying Fruit Fly Circus performers - in shows, training sessions, rehearsals and behind the scenes for a decade.

Iconic props and costumes selected from the Flying Fruit Fly Circus' extensive collection are also included in the exhibition.

The Flying Fruit Fly Circus is deeply embedded in Albury–Wodonga community as an incredible success story of regional Australia and its community spirit. Ian's photography captures the freedom of spirit and discipline that thrives amidst the chaos of life in the circus. This exhibition celebrates both the young Fruit Fly artists and the community that they spring from.

About the artist - Melbourne-based Ian Sutherland has an association with the Flying Fruit Fly Circus through his daughter, who was a Fruity. Ian has been employed by the circus to take promotional and candid photographs for a decade.
