Hey folks, I’m making this post with my @guildhouse_au Artist Advisory Group member hat on to promote an upcoming masterclass and artist talk delivered by my homie @abdul_rahman_abdullah
Guildhouse writes, "This workshop is centred on growing and sustaining a thriving arts practice, offering firsthand insights that can only come from another artist. It’s a valuable opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and walk away with practical strategies you can apply immediately to your practice and career."
It will be followed by an artist talk in conversation with @georgina_mills_art
Hit up Humanitix for tickets to one or both events!
I am delighted to be part of the group exhibition ‘Mind Maps’, opening at Adelaide Central Gallery, on Tuesday April 21, from 6-8pm.
Exhibition curator Andrew Purvis writes, “The map is more than a neutral instrument of navigation, it is also a powerful implement of political control, superimposing otherwise invisible borders and boundaries onto the landscape. By contrast, the exhibition 'Mind Maps' is an atlas of internal and interpersonal topographies, featuring work by Roy Ananda, Zaachariaha Fielding, Richard Lewer, Debbie Pryor and Laura Wills. The artists in this exhibition use found maps and cartographic processes to explore routes between family and community, traverse realms of imagination, and trace the familiar paths of personal anxieties.”
My contributions to the show comprise a modular drawing from 2018, created for ‘Directors’ Cut’, the ten-year anniversary show at FELTspace, and two annotated diagrams, created for the 2020 group exhibition ‘The Unsolicited Proposals Unit’, held at Canberra Contemporary and curated by Eleanor Scicchitano. Big thanks to Jenna Pippett for her invaluable InDesign assistance in creating the annotation works!

Just got my hands on a copy of ‘On Display: The Story of Artbank’, @lauraelizabethcouttie 's exhaustive tome on “Australia’s most visible art collection”. I was thrilled to see my kinetic, duelling sword work alongside work from my lovely friend @tarryngill and accompanied by erudite commentary courtesy of @hugomich of @hugomichellgallery

Big thanks to @michelle_hamer for allowing me to be an early bird participant in her textile/text/photographic/relational work ‘There are no words’ at the opening of ‘Intimacy’ at @rockhamptonmuseumofart
‘There Are No Words’ is “a set of 240 hand-stitched works featuring embroidered text from emails, text messages and conversations during an intimate and long-running exchange. The language that appears is personal, very specific to time, place and the people within the exchange, and also out of context.”
RMOA staff will be facilitating found poetry workshops centred on this work (which will be documented via thermal photography) throughout the duration of the show.
