Consuelo Cavaniglia

Consuelo Cavaniglia is an interdisciplinary artist whose work focuses on how we see and understand space. Taking its cues from film, photography and architecture, her work employs technically simple visual effects to distort perception and unsettle the relationship between viewer and space. The spaces alluded to in the work are illusory and imaginary – spaces of the psyche rather than the concrete world. Currently based in Sydney, Cavaniglia is a Masters of Fine Art candidate at Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree (Art and Languages) from UWA in 1993 and a Bachelor of Art (Art) with Honours from Curtin University in 2002. She has exhibited extensively across Australia in various galleries including Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts 2015; Sarah Cottier Gallery, Sydney, 2014; 55 Sydenham Road, Sydney, 2014; Perth Centre for Photography, 2014; Firstdraft, Sydney, 2013; Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery, Perth, 2013; Galerie Düsseldorf, Perth, 2012; and Linden Arts Centre, Melbourne, 2008. Independent curatorial projects have consistently flanked Cavaniglia’s practice. She has developed a range of exhibitions including a major project involving the presentation of ephemeral artworks in public spaces.

Penny Coss

Penny Coss is a highly-regarded mid-career painter based in Western Australia. Informed by the abstract expressionist tradition, Coss’ work interprets her encounters with Western Australia’s natural environment through colour and gesture, most recently incorporating a refined process of staining. Coss was born in Sydney in 1961 and gained a BA and postgraduate Diploma in Visual Arts from the University of New South Wales before moving to Perth in 1994. She has subsequently held fourteen solo exhibitions in Western Australia, Victoria, New South Wales and Singapore, and participated in numerous group exhibitions across Australia and internationally, as well as undertaking further studies in drawing at St. Martins School of Art, London, and receiving an ArtsWA grant to participate in the 1997 New York School of Art Drawing Marathon, in Adelaide. She has won the Mt. Eyre Vineyards National Art Award, the Kimberly Drawing Prize and the Albany Art Prize, and her work is represented in numerous Australian and international collections including Artbank, Bankwest, Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art, the Derwent Collection, Edith Cowan University, the Itami Arts and Craft Museum, Kerry Stokes Collection, King Edward Memorial Hospital, Macquarie Bank, Royal Perth Hospital, the University of New South Wales, the University of Western Australia, and Wesfarmers Arts.

Yuko Fujita

Yuko Fujita began a degree in Japanese literature in Tokyo before moving to Australia to study jewellery at NMIT, and completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Gold and Silversmithing) at
RMIT University. In 2010, she exhibited KODAMA – Return to Me at e.g.etal, a major solo exhibition that borrowed from her literary beginnings, using visual language and materials—found wood and objects as well as gold and silver— to tell a story. Fujita’s work has since been exhibited across Australia, in Europe and New Zealand. Fujita’s pieces are realised through a spontaneous
reaction to her materials, which creates outcomes that are never the same, reclaiming found objects as wearable sculptures. She is interested in making contemporary jewellery that interacts with
the wearer. Fujita gives free reign to the interplay between the fundamental qualities of material, texture, shape and colour. She believes that her pieces are completed when a viewer or wearer
communicates with them through their imagination, engaging both physically and emotionally.

Nicky Hepburn

Nicky Hepburn is a Melbourne-based jeweller whose work combines a sense of play with a love of diverse and found materials. Hepburn undertook a Diploma of Gold and Silversmithing at RMIT in 1980, before completing a Bachelor of Education in Arts and Crafts at the University of Melbourne, specialising in woodwork and textiles. After spending a number of years teaching, living and making in Ballarat, she returned to Melbourne in 1993, establishing a studio in the CBD from where she has participated in solo and group exhibitions across Australia and internationally, and produced numerous commissions and product ranges. Hepburn’s aesthetic is informed by the collection of objects from the natural environment, and she often uses found materials to create initial studies from which she develops her final work. Her practice is an observation and celebration of cycles and natural growth patterns encountered in the landscape.

Pennie Jagiello

Pennie Jagiello completed a Bachelor of Fine Art and Sculpture at VCA, Melbourne in 1995. She has since exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions across Australia, and is currently enrolled
in a Fine Art research Masters of Art at RMIT. Jagiello’s work is influenced by the enduringly powerful mystique of the ocean, and is mostly constructed from discarded telephone wire cables.
The wire gives her work movement and flexibility, reflecting the fragile environment and intense colours of sea life. She also frequently uses re-purposed plastic to create works that are reminiscent of specimens gathered and drawn by early European explorers and naturalists.

Pilar Mata Dupont

Pilar Mata Dupont is an artist based between Western Australia and the Netherlands whose work investigates nationalism, identity, and the psychological triggers of nostalgia. In collaboration with Tarryn Gill, she participated in the Sydney Biennale and won the Basil Sellers Art Prize in 2010, and held a ten-year retrospective at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts in 2011. As part of multi-artform collective Hold Your Horses, she made work commissioned by the Akademie der Künste in Berlin in 2012 for the exhibition Wagner 2013: Künstlerpositionen. In 2012 she was a recipient of a Mid-career Fellowship from the Western Australian Government, allowing her to investigate her turbulent family history in Argentina. A survey of her solo video works were shown as part of the CineB Film Festival in Santiago, Chile in late 2013 and her most recent solo exhibition, Kaiho, opened in the Rappu space at the Pori Art Museum, Finland in late 2014. In 2015 she was one of ten nominees for the main prize at the prestigious Spring Exhibition at the Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen. Mata Dupont has solo and collaborative work in the collections
of the Art Gallery of Western Australia, Campbelltown Arts Centre, University of Western Australia, Artbank, the City of Perth, Queensland Art Gallery and Stadiums Queensland.

Dr Garrett Jaeger

Garrett J Jaeger, Ph.D. is a Research Fellow at the LEGO Foundation in Billund, Denmark. His research focuses on mapping exploratory behaviours to better understand links between play and creativity. He previously studied exploratory play in children’s museums as a postdoctoral researcher at University of California, Santa Cruz and as the Thomas Murphy research fellow at the Center for Childhood Creativity at the Bay Area Discovery Museum. Garrett’s work at the LEGO Foundation includes the transformation of paper-and-pencil tests into behavioural measures of what occurs in situ as children are learning through play. These measures are paired with activities and are introduced in numerous geographic contexts; bolstering the need for co-creation to overcome deficit thinking as we to introduce our learning through play interventions. As a former teacher in preschools, secondary schools, and universities, Garrett continues designing and facilitating playful experiences where children inspire adults, ideas lead logistics, and evidence checks intuition.

Bruce Munro

British artist Bruce Munro is best known for producing large immersive light-based installations, which often employ a massing of components by the thousands. An artistic diarist, he has spent over 30 years collecting and recording ideas and images in his sketchbooks, which he returns to over time as source material.

Language, literature, science, and music have also greatly influenced his work. Frequently, Bruce’s subject matter is his own experience of fleeting moments of rapport with the world and existence in its largest sense of being part of life’s essential pattern. His reoccurring motif is the use of light on an environmental scale in order to create an emotional response for the viewer.

Bruce completed a B.A. in Fine Arts at Bristol in 1982. Shortly after he moved to Sydney where he worked in design and lighting, inspired by Australia’s natural light and landscape. Returning to England in 1992 he settled in Wiltshire, where together with his wife, Serena, he raised four children.

Bruce’s work has been shown at Museums and Botanical Gardens internationally, notably, Longwood Gardens, Pennsylvania; The Victoria & Albert Museum, London; Waddesdon Manor for the Rothschild Collection, Buckinghamshire; and Beyond Limits 2016 for Sothebys at Chatsworth House. His work Field of Light continues to be exhibited at Uluru, NT, Australia. In September 2018 Bruce created Moon Blooms a permanent public art installation for the Bicester Shopping Village in Oxfordshire.

Bruce’s work is held in private and public museum collections internationally including Cheekwood Garden and Art Museum, TN; the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, Texas Tech University TX.

Karim Jabbari

Tunisian Karim Jabbari is an abstract calligraphy and lightgraff artist whose work is inspired by old Arabic scriptures. Jabbari’s abstract form of calligraphy uses different patterns, shapes, and colors featuring compositions of classic Kufi and Maghrebi calligraphy and reflect a strong pull towards his North African background as well as an effort to keep dying traditions alive.
