Collections

11 JULY – 4 AUGUST 2024

Collections is a group exhibition by Sue Cant, Julie Roberts, Lynne Thomson and Jo Townsend, exploring the environment and the way we move through life through each artist’s practice. 

Exhibition Statement:

Our lives are a tapestry of connections that define us, each thread representing a collection of moments that shape our individual journeys.

In Collections, we contemplate the essence of our existence, exploring the myriad collections that compose the fabric of our lives and our relationship with the environment.

Through ceramics, print, and paint, we delve into the interplay of light, surface, texture, shape, and colour. These artworks invite us to pause and contemplate, encouraging us to reflect on our interactions with the environment.

Each artist brings a distinctive style and perspective to the exhibition drawn from their own individually collected experiences. Together the works form a mosaic that celebrates the richness and diversity of the human experience. 

Canberra Potters and Watson Arts Centre acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land where we meet and work, the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people and other First Nations people who are connected with this land. We celebrate and respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of the ACT and region. This is Aboriginal land. Always was always will be.
