Opening Reception RE:WILD

RE:WILD

An exhibition of 12 artists who currently call Maketank home. RE:WILD is both an introduction to the work of these artists and the theme chosen by Maketank to frame this year’s curatorial and conversational endeavours.

The 12 exhibiting artists were selected from an open call, to be mentors for emerging artists whilst developing their own creative practice. They have diverse backgrounds: several have recently graduated, some have a long-standing practice, while others are returning to their practice after a necessary interlude.  All work exhibited was produced during the past 12 months, with many pieces made specifically for the exhibition in response to the theme.
