What is This?

Thresholds and transgressions in design, art and performance

The final instalment in What is This? Thresholds and transgressions in design, art and performance.

To close their exhibition, What is This? – Thresholds and transgressions in design, art and performance, Anastasia La Fey and Holly Durant will be joined by fellow collaborators, cinematographer Lucy Pijnenburg and sound artist Sara Retallick to host an informal artist talk in their exhibition space.

The artists will be discussing their process, works and the power of interdisciplinary collaboration.

The artists would like to acknowledge the Wurundjeri, Djab Wurrung, Gunditjmara, and Gulidjan peoples of the Kulin Nation as the traditional custodians of the unceded lands and waters, on which they live, create and exhibit their work, and pay their respect to all First Nations Ancestors and Elders, past, present and emerging.
