EXHIBITION | Australian Tapestry Workshop

Line/Loop/Line

2 November 2023 — 2 February 2024.

Featuring: Donna Blackall (Yorta Yorta), Phong Chi Lai, Misako Nakahira (JPN), Malin Parkegren (SWE), Theo Rooden (NLD), Britt Salt, and Shannon Slee.

Line/Loop/Line shows the work of seven artists who explore the language of geometric abstraction in textiles through manipulating patterns, lines, stripes, shapes, repetition and colour. These artists employ cloth and coil weaving, quilting and tapestry, the handmade and machine made.

AWARD | Fiona Myer White Story Residency

I’m delighted to have been awarded the Fiona Myer White Story Residency for my work Living Grid II, as part of the VCA Grad Show 2023. The $5000 associated with the award will help me to develop my practice and create new work, and in 2024, I will undertake a residency at the White Story studio in Cremorne.

Thank you to the trustees of the Fiona Myer White Story Residency for their generosity.

"Me and My Mentor: Britt Salt and Hannah Gartside”

by Rochelle Siemienowicz, 21 Aug, 2023.

Earlier this year, Rochelle spoke to Hannah and I about our experience working together in a mentorship. We shared a little about our individual practices, how they overlap and diverge from one another, our love of materials and the excitement of having real bodies engage with our work.

Many thanks to VCA Access for this mentorship opportunity and to Hannah for all her support.
