Artist Talks
Exhibition tour sessions
Meet with our exhibiting artists and curators within the space of their exhibitions. Our intimate art talks offer visitors the opportunity to learn about the works directly from the artists who made them.
Meet the artist:
mieke van den berg
Saturday 18 January, 10 am
Join artist Mieke van den Berg in the space of her exhibition One Thread Many Loops for an informal conversation.
Australian-based Dutch-born visual artist Mieke van den Berg currently explores anarchic feminist theories through textile craft works based on traditionally feminine domestic craft. Her practice engages with accumulative, time-consuming, and repetitive processes where domestic materials and textiles carry metaphors and build layers of meaning, acknowledging the mundane household duties.
Please note: the artist talk will begin at 10am coinciding with Mieke’s workshop. All visitors and non-workshop participants are invited to attend the talk.

Ben Hedström is a contemporary Australian artist based on the Sunshine Coast. His work explores the materiality of painting through alla prima and impasto oil techniques. Being present in the landscape and studying natural phenomena is key to Hedström’s creative process. Hedström’s work has been featured as a finalist in many art prizes, including the Archibald Prize.
Please note artist talk will begin at 10am coinciding with Ben’s workshop. All visitors and non-workshop participants are invited to attend the talk.
