Group exhibition that brings together past ceramics students and lecturers from the late 1980s/early 1990s at RMIT.

Mainly featuring ceramics (whilst all continue with their art practice, some have branched out into other mediums), this exhibition will include works by artists David Ray, Sharon Muir, Fiona Hiscock, Liz Danby, Fleur Rendell, Marianne Huhn and Danny McCubbin along with past lecturers Sally Cleary, Kim Martin and Christopher Sanders. What adds an extra dimension to the exhibition is that as well as Melbourne and regional Victoria, individual artists are based in the UK, Italy and France.

The works in this exhibition are gatherings of people in an unidentifiable landscape. They sit/stand and interact by sharing the space – but mostly they inhabit it in their own world. As Bain-King paints, he looks to capture their take on this place/their universe, fascinated as he is by people and the way we all sit in our own subjectivity. But he is also fascinated by the way we all carry our burdens, hopes and sensitivities. And this sits like body memory within us all.

Bain-King's intention is to not work in a particular style – although he does. Instead, he draws most satisfaction from employing processes that uncover hidden understandings and ideas. To do this, the artist paints as if he's in a conversation with the canvas. It is not something he controls, instead he enters in to it. And hopefully, it takes him and the viewer, on a journey – to places unrecognised – or forgotten. The artwork sits in its own world with its own climate and reality.

Following on from the solo exhibition in August of last year, RhD+ II continues TJ Bateson's exploration of the creation of work looking into the altered states of difference.

Having survived a 10 year battle with Mantel Cell Lymphoma, Bateson is now loaded with a new immune system, powered by new blood made possible by the stem cell donation by daughter, MayRose Bateson. This body of work explores the structures and patterns of DNA mapping, bone structures and more.

Caroline Kennedy maps a personal journey through the beautiful landscape of Shallow Inlet in the South Gippsland region, exploring themes of contemplation and reflection. 

This body of work is a diaristic journal, drawn from Kennedy’s many years of daydreaming at the Inlet. Kennedy explores how the light reflects in the tidal waterways and records them at different times of the day and seasons. 

Kennedy loves to examine the reflected and refracted light in her landscape painting; whether through reflections in water or glass or how shadows may be cast according to the nature of their source, Kennedy studies specular reflectivity.
