Showing 22 August to 22 October 2024
On display in the Engine Room (Level M)
Part of the Hanging by a Thread project, this exhibition aims to raise awareness of the plight of Afghan women and girls as it tours select galleries throughout Australia. It brings together mosaics from SA, VIC, NSW, QLD, TAS, WA and New Zealand undertaken by communities during the 2022 International Year of Glass. Each artist has made a small segment of glass mosaic, which is being joined together to create a series of giant scarfs.
Curated by Kristin Wohlers and Behishta Anwar
