Kristy Scaddan on Unfold Exhibition
Presented as part of the Indian Ocean Craft Triennial (IOTA24), Unfold explores the craft of the artists’ book through the stories and conversations of fifteen Western Australian artists.
“For Unfold, each artist was invited to explore their connections to land, humanity and place, both from this land and further afield from their own lived experiences and various Indian Ocean Heritages. By interrogating and reinventing their traditional disciplines, they not only unravel the interconnectedness of humanity to capture a sense of place, but through the use of their preferred materials, also challenge the form of the conventional book to create sculptural art objects.”
The participating Western Australian artists include Nazerul Ben-Dzulkefli, Monique Bosshard Curby, Bina Butcher, Moira Court, Jo Darvall, Shanti Gelmi, Louise Grimshaw, Sarah Hewer, Rob Kettels, Monika Lukowska, Norma MacDonald, Matt Perrin, Kristy Scaddan, Paul Uhlmann and Vanessa Wallace.
