After teaching for 10 years in both Government and Independent schools in Melbourne she worked as a Sales Executive and Art Educator for Cavalier Art Supplies for 16 years. Recently Trudi Harley completed a Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts) (Honours) with Distinction between 2008 – 2009, and a Master of Arts (Research), Visual Art between 2010 – 2012 at the University of Ballarat (now Federation University). Maintaining an artistic practice while in a business partnership Trudi Harley owns and runs Atelier Art Supplies in Williamstown, Victoria, which is a major supporter of the arts in the western suburbs of Melbourne/ This item is part of the Federation University Art Collection. The Art Collection features over 2000 works and was listed as a 'Ballarat Treasure' in 2007.Artist's Statement: As an artist am continually drawn to ‘what makes us who we are’ and as a result the work, whatever it may be, is a reflection on what makes me who I am. In this I refer to perception, experience and memory as aspects that contribute to our sense of reality. By using these references I intend to engage the audience and develop a sense of connection and community through the visual image. ‘Fallen’ was not necessarily a reflection on my own life but of life in general as I recall at the time I had a family member who was struggling to cope with their own reality. I can also recall at the time reflecting on the adage ‘walk a mile in my shoes’ and the pressures we all face in life. Added to this were my own influences of upbringing, I have always been particularly drawn to fabrics and patterns as my mother was/is (getting a little old now) a seamstress and my father was a bit of a ‘perfectionist’. During my honours study I came across the term ‘Esperpento’ which included such visual elements as exaggeration and unusual viewpoints. Fallen was a comment on the psychology associated with expectations in life, or more importantly those expectations placed on offspring by their parents. This painting reflected the consequences of not living up to those expectations. It is unfortunate that in life, by the time you get to the point of realising that you have the opportunity to set your own standards, that you’ve probably embodied a great many set of values by osmosis and that you’ve now claimed them as your own. The view is from above to dramatize the subject, the figure placed compositionally in the top right hand corner to open up the picture plane and allow for the narrative to continue outside the visual area of the canvas. It was also in this painting that I rubbed back some of the darker oil paint to allow the lighter underpainting to show through.art, artwork, trudi harley, harley, carpet, portrait, self-portrait, alumni -

It became a key transitional body that eventually fed into what is now Victoria University. Initially in 1991, the school was called the Gellibrand College of TAFE, before adopting the name Western Metropolitan College of TAFE. The name of the school was again changed in 1996, becoming the Western Melbourne Institute of TAFE. In 1998, the school was merged into Victoria University of Technology (now Victoria University).These documents record the early days of consultation about the former Sunshine High School being turned into a TAFE College.5376.01 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - Sunshine High To Turn TAFE.jpg Newspaper Article Sunshine Western Suburbs Advocate Sunshine High to turn TAFE 5376.02 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - Sunshine High Letter To Ian Baker State Member For Sunshine.jpg Letter of concern from Sunshine High School staff convenors 5376.03 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - Letter From Ian Baker State Member For Sunshine To Norman Carlton.jpg Letter Former Sunshine High School Site 5376.04 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - State Training Board Letter To Ian Baker State Member For Sunshine Page 1.jpg 5376.04 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - State Training Board Letter To Ian Baker State Member For Sunshine Page 2.jpg Letter Transfer of Sunshine High School to Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE 5376.05 - Western Metropolitan College Of TAFE - Letter From Ian Baker State Member For Sunshine To Norman Carlton.jpg Letter The Transfer of Sunshine High School to Western Metropolitan College Of TAFEsunshine high school, ballarat road, sunshine north, western metropolitan college of tafe, western melbourne institute of tafe, victoria university of technology, victoria university -

Peerless is still operating out of long-established Braybrook industrial complex, and the site remains one of the largest and longest running industrial facilities in Melbourne’s western suburbs....Peerless is still operating out of long-established Braybrook industrial complex, and the site remains one of the largest and longest running industrial facilities in Melbourne’s western suburbs. These tallow tanks are large, heated storage vessels that are used to hold rendered animal fat (tallow) in liquid form so it can be processed, refined, or transported. ...Peerless Holdings’ Braybrook site began in the 1890s as Pridham’s Rendering Works. The rendering works produced sausage casings, meat meal, tallow, and fertiliser and operated as part of a large cluster of slaughterhouse related industries in Braybrook and Footscray districts. The founder, William Pridham was a prominent civic figure (Councillor, mayor, and community leader). Peerless Foods began in the 1950s as a small Melbourne business recycling and rendering meat by‑products with their early focus on rendering, tallow production, basic edible fats and oils. This positioned Peerless as a natural successor to Pridham’s operations. In 1982, Peerless Foods acquires Pridham’s Braybrook rendering business This acquisition gave Peerless a large, established industrial site, and by integrating Pridham’s century old rendering operations allowed Peerless to scale into a national fats and oils manufacturer During the 1980s and into the 2000s, Peerless went through a diversification process and expanded from tallow into edible oils, margarine, shortenings, bakery fats and foodservice oil. In 2005, Peerless purchased Unilever’s nonretail margarine and oil business, acquiring major Australian brands EOI, Copha, Fairy and Kremelta. This dramatically increased the Braybrook site’s production and distribution role. Peerless Holdings (Peerless Foods) now produces edible oils, spreads, shortenings, and bakery fats, supplies retail, foodservice, bakery, ingredients, and export markets. Peerless is still operating out of long-established Braybrook industrial complex, and the site remains one of the largest and longest running industrial facilities in Melbourne’s western suburbs.These tallow tanks are large, heated storage vessels that are used to hold rendered animal fat (tallow) in liquid form so it can be processed, refined, or transported. As tallow is solid at room temperature, these tanks keep it pumpable, and are fitted with steam coils, hot‑water jackets and insulated walls.evans street, braybrook, pridham -

The school was founded by early farming families shortly after the suburb itself was created by Alfred Padley and the Cosmopolitan Land & Banking Co. around the railway line. Local families needed a permanent school to replace informal or church-based teaching arrangements and this school was built. St. Albans grew dramatically after WWII due to migrant settlement and with industrial expansion in Sunshine, Tottenham, and Braybrook. The school was expanded with additional classrooms, specialist rooms (art, library, music) and larger playgrounds and assembly areas. By the 1960s–70s, the state School was a major multicultural school serving a rapidly growing suburb. For more than a century, the school has been central to migrant education, local civic life, community events and fetes The school has tight partnerships with the St. Albans High School and other local institutions.
