Join artist Helen Pynor, creative producer Lizzie Crouch and Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf Assistant Curator Maya Martin-Westheimer to reflect on Bone Drift, an exhibition exploring the materiality of bone and fluid (dis)ability identities, currently showing at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf.
Pynor and Crouch will reflect on their shared experience of making, thinking, and experimenting together as collaborators, and most recently as artists-in-residence at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf. The exhibition features objects created during workshops held at Gallery Lane Cove + Creative Studios, Bankstown Arts Centre, and Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf.
Pynor and Crouch will discuss material and aesthetic conversations between artefacts in the show, the process of conversation and making that took place during the workshops, and dialogues between exhibition objects and audiences. They will also discuss Pynor’s work Habitation, featured in the exhibition, in which Pynor made a bone china object from her own surgically excised bone material.
