Functional, Sculptural, Decorative is the first exhibition at North Melbourne's newest pop-up gallery For Your Pleasure. It showcases the work of twelve women and gender diverse artists working across disciplines including ceramics, painting and jewellery.
This project provides a unique opportunity for this group of artists, who fundamentally believe that 'art is work'. The intersection of their creative practices displays how artists often need to have 'functional' work as a primary income source - however, they share a combined value of sculptural and decorative work that we believe is equally as important, yet not typically represented in retail and gallery spaces (predominantly with ceramic art) and more importantly - not appreciated as fiscally as other visual arts.
Opening night Thursday 10th October. 6-8pm
Showing from Thursday the 10th til Sunday the 20th.
