Painting from memory
AN artist has completed a mural at the Glass Cube gallery in the Frankston Arts Centre. Peninsula-based artist Morano is displaying his work, titled Urban Capsules, until 23 March. “The body of work I have been doing lately is a juxtaposition of memories of urban landscapes and the people who live there. My process is always very impulsive and a lot of it comes from the unconscious,” Morano said. “For me, in my practice, showing the process is one of the most important things. Being exposed, vulnerable and being myself.” The Barcelona-born artist is also displaying other artwork of his in the This town, My quarter exhibition at the Frankston Arts Centre’s Curved Wall Gallery until 30 April.

Bus replacements scheduled again Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON train line commuters are facing two months of bus replacements. More level crossing removals have been scheduled on the Frankston train
line. Five level crossings across Edithvale, Chelsea and Bonbeach are expected to be removed by the end of this year. Edithvale, Chelsea, and Bonbeach stations will close for demolition and reconstruction in the middle of the year. Trains will run express through them while works are ongoing.

From around September, the line will shut down between Mordialloc and Frankston. Bus replacements will be scheduled for commuters for two months. When the line shuts down, work will be undertaken to create rail trenches, build roads, lay new tracks, and extend Thames Promenade to the
Searoad Ferries Sorrento
Nepean Highway. The state government says that work should be finished by the end of 2021, with the three new stations to open in stages throughout the year. Frankston line commuters faced bus replacements throughout a big chunk of 2020 as well. Buses replaced trains between Moorabbin and
Mordialloc stations from 23 May to 20 July. Buses also replaced trains between Mordialloc and Frankston last month while crews upgraded signalling and created the foundations for the new stations.
