- Description: Exhibition held at Space 22 Gallery, Ballarat,25th November -12th December This exhibition aimed to consider the ways in which we experience and inhabit our skin. The visual expression of that experience, premised in my case on place, memory and ageing, provided a key thematic link between two individual bodies of work. My works were triggered by a visit to a Korean Buddhist Temple in 2010. The drawings were intended to give visual expression to my continuting meditation on ageing in contemporary culture, and were therefore strongly influenced by that brief encounter with the spiritual strength and beauty of age old Buddhist artistic and spiritual practice at a critical time in my life.

The project focused on the recognition of kinship between humans and other animals and resulted in this body of work which contributes to the current discourse around animals in contemporary art. Consistent with her past practice, the works are all paper-based, demonstrating the versatility of this medium.

A Memory : The Jan Feder Memorial Ceramics Collection
- Date: 2015
- Type: Text , Visual art work

- Description: A collection of ceramics in honour of a former student will be exhibited at Federation University Australia’s Gippsland Campus. The Jan Feder Memorial Collection was chosen by former ceramics lecturer Dr Owen Rye and will be exhibited at the Switchback Gallery from 20 May until 9 July, 2015 Many of these pieces are works of national and international significance and would be highly sought after by museums and galleries in Australia and overseas. The exhibition will be opened by Dr Rye at 5.00 pm on Wednesday, 20 May, 2015 in the presence of Dr Harry Ballis, Campus Director, and Peter Pilven, well known ceramic artist and Head of the Arts Academy. In 1980 students at the then Gippsland Institute of Advanced Education raised a small sum of money to buy a few small ceramic pieces to form the basis of a study collection. They did this in memory of student Jan Feder, who died tragically that year. Beginning with a piece by the noted Australian potter Victor Greenaway, the collection grew over the next decade to become a collection of 63 major works by some of the world’s leading ceramic artists. The collection was packed away in a clay shed and forgotten altogether until director Tony Hanning, along with two technical assistants Russell Snelton and Neale Stratford, rediscovered the collection. When they unpacked the work they realised that it was a snapshot of world ceramics from the eighties and nineties, with major works by leading British, American and Japanese artists, as well as the cream of Australian ceramic artists.
