“I thank the artists who gave so willingly of their time and experience and the students who have delighted me with their commitment and final works.”
Over three intensive collaborative teaching days and five weekly workshops, six student collaborators considered acts of art-making, translation, collaboration and community.
From ethics to interview techniques, through examples and discussions of collaborative pathways and with an intense desire for excellence, the students have worked together to produce this exhibition In(out)sider.
Inspired and informed by interviews with six Canberra-based artists, and originally conceived as a public, object-based collaborative exhibition, In(out)sider transitioned, in the final week of workshops/first week of lockdown, to the online imaginings you see here…… Dr Anni Doyle Wawrzynczak
