ARTIST TALK & PRINTMAKING WORKSHOP | Between Waves artist Cassie Sullivan

BETWEEN WAVES | Artist Talk and Printmaking Workshop with Cassie Sullivan

Join Between Waves artist Cassie Sullivan in exploring the themes of the exhibition—what’s above, below and between—through printmaking.

Over three hours you will be monoprinting objects from everyday life to experiment with what can be shown through materiality. Objects will be layered and printed using both plastic and gelli plates; attendees will be able to take their artworks home on the day.

This workshop is free, and all inks and paper will be provided. No previous experience is necessary. We encourage you to bring something meaningful from home to either print with or draw.

Places are limited so bookings are essential.

Printmaking Workshop: 10am - 1pm

Artist talk: 2pm - 3pm

Cassie Sullivan is a lutruwita/trouwerner First Nations artist based on Melukerdee Country in lutruwita/Tasmania. She has a responsive, intimate, and experimental practice that crosses disciplines of moving image, photography, writing, sound, installation, and printmaking. Sullivan works with a deeply considered process driven practice that prioritises a multisensory engagement with Country.

John Robinson has an extensive background in printmaking in the commercial industry, as well at both TAFE and UTAS University. John is a practising printmaker who operates a teaching/access studio in Hobart. He regularly works with most methods of printmaking and personally uses the local environment as a recurring subject matter.
