Storm in a Teacup


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.

Storm in a Teacup & Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery link here.

Depleted (detail), 2010, refers to the mining and exhausting of the porcelain material kaolin used in the ceramic manufacture in Jingdezhen since the 1300s.
