History Always Repeats, July - August 2015
Wendy Garden has curated my Honours installation Porcelain Wall - Ode to an Obsession into the exhibition Storm in a Teacup.
The exhibition contexturalises Australia's tea drinking culture with
historic objects & paintings alongside work by contemporary artists.
It's good to be reminded that Melbourne's fervour for a warm beverage
was once for tea not coffee. Artists include: Charles Blackman, E.
Phillips Fox, Rosalie Gascoigne, Danie Mellor, Anne Zahalka, Vipoo
Srivilasa & Penny Byrne.
