The Act of Looking by Jana Papantoniou

The Act of Looking pieces together old prints from Jana Papantoniou's personal archives to create new bodies of work in a monochromatic puzzle of pictorial language.

Between personal and political: material substances, transactions, actions, and movements by Jing Liang

Between personal and political pays homage to working women in a collection of experimental ceramic works navigating physical labour, feminism and family history.

I Spoke To An Echo: The Jewellery Studio as an Archive of Human Interaction with Material by Teegan Horat

As an RMIT University student, Teegan Horat fell in love with the community in the jewellery studios, a discipline often misrepresented or misunderstood by the public.
