Jenny Berry, a professional visual artist based in Adelaide, is passionate about the underwater world and the creatures and flora that reside there 🐠🪸🤿
As a keen diver, many of her artworks are inspired by photos she’s taken during her underwater experiences. Her love for the ocean and its undersea creatures is evident in every stroke of her brush.
Beneath the Blue reflects Jenny’s experiences diving in Indonesia near Komodo Island. The underwater world she encountered was a vibrant tapestry of colours, teeming with life. The unique fish life and the magnificent coral leaves viewers in awe, unable to decide where to look first.
Location: Orange Heart Gallery | Level 1 along the Samuel Way walkway.

We’re proud to have supported a new series of short, easy-to-follow videos created by the Community Physiotherapy service at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital Network.
Flat spots on a baby`s head (plagiocephaly and brachycephaly) are a common concern for families. They can develop when babies spend lots of time on their backs, prefer looking to one side, or don’t get enough tummy time.
These new videos give parents simple, practical tips they can use at home, from daily supervised tummy time to encouraging babies to look both ways and spending more time playing freely on the floor.
Physiotherapist Melissa Keough says early guidance makes all the difference. “Head shape is a common concern for parents of new babies. It can be managed by employing strategies at home, and in fact if started early, head shape issues can be prevented from occurring in the first place.”
By supporting the development of these resources, we’re helping families feel confident and informed during their baby’s early development.
