SOUTH AUSTRALIA HERE WE COME!!! SOUTH AUSTRALIA HERE WE COME!!!
Well, it's finally arrived - the time to set off on our great South Australian adventure!
We are very excited to be the Artist's in Residence at Port Augusta Cultural Centre and are looking forward to trading artworks and objects with the locals.
This is a photo from the last time we were in Port Augusta in 2011, on our way to our first residency at Hermannsburg, and looking forward to returning and really getting to know the place. If anyone has any suggestions of 'must-do's' please pass them on!
We will be completing a body of work on our return about connecting to place of Port Augusta, some of which will be exhibited at Trading Place Lismore in 2015.

Trading Place packed for transit
The brief we gave ourselves for the artworks for Trading Place was that they had to be miniature, portable and easily transportable. We wrapped & packed the finalised pieces last Thursday and amazingly they fitted beautifully into one large box - matching our brief perfectly, I must admit I was impressed, although we have no real control over the pieces we trade with, except that we hope others follow the brief as much as possible, so they will fit in the car for the return journey!
