Today and tomorrow are the last days to catch Agency Ink: The Personal and Political in Print curated by Catherine Connolly, and featuring Charlotte Allingham @coffinbirth, Rachel Ang, Clea Chiller, Inez, Jess Knight, Miranda Costa, Carol Porter and myself at Counihan Gallery in Brunswick - Narrm. I’m showing work created during my current @Library_Vic Creative Fellowship, from my new series in progress (The Progressive Arts Institution prefers) The Circus of the Oppressed. This satirical poster style series examining the experiences of marginalised artists in institutional contexts is created in collaboration with 10gentle collective, a for-profit anti-oppression operation consisting of diverse creators and community builders in the progressive arts dedicated to maximising the expressions of marginalised identities for the education, inspiration and entertainment of privileged audiences. Counihan Gallery, 233 Sydney Rd Brunswick - Narrm. Show continues until Apr 15. Open Wed-Sat 11-5 & Sun 1-5.
