THE CHOSEN VESSEL: BELINDA MICHAEL & TIFFANY TITSHALL
WED 14 DEC 2022 - FRI 3 FEB 2023
In an exhibition showcasing the collaborative work of Belinda Michael and Tiffany Titshall, these two important central Victorian artists present a powerful new series of drawings and ceramic vessels of immense beauty and intrigue.
Set within the colonial Australian gold rush era, the artists challenge stereotypical narratives, recreating traditional scenes with a powerful female protagonist avenging the murder of her mother by performing wild and powerful acts on her harem of enslaved men.
Here, accepted histories are upended replaced by a potent gothic mythological tale of female power, lust and revenge!
This exhibition was opened by Natasha Mitchell, presenter, ABC Radio National, on Fri 9 Dec 2022.
