Local ceramicist Anabelle Stonehouse and Winchelsea-based weaver Jane Bartier will talk about their new bodies of work, Ornamental and Footfall and how they have found the experience of exhibiting. Gain insight into how the artists work, the materials they use, and the ideas they engage with.
Participants are encouraged to come by on their lunchbreak, where they can browse Gallery One and stop to grab a coffee or some food. The talk will be set up around a large shared table in the Café, allowing for open conversation, and lots of question-asking.
This event is free to attend; please register for numbers.

Anabelle Stonehouse is a Geelong-based ceramic artist, working under the moniker Tink Ceramics. She creates functional and sculptural ceramics which take an expansive approach to femininity, form and embellishment. Her work explores feminist concepts, and uses hand-building and wheel-throwing techniques. Her signature feminine details of pearls and frills reflect historic fashion motifs and explore gender identity.
Jane Bartier works in place; where she walks; and through her weaving and textile perspective, considers the landscape in which she undertakes her practice. Jane has moved her practice to capture walking as a component, going off loom and accessing discarded material of haybale twine and haybale plastic rolls. Her works can be sculptural, holey, large, knotted, repetitive. Jane seeks out conversation where living in unceded land, in a farming community and where environmental crises lead to debate, to ask questions of action, inaction, activism and silence.
