This exhibition provides an introduction to the ongoing reality that is art from the Belconnen area. It will be succeeded by annual exhibitions showcasing further artists and their work at that time. Media represented in the Surfacing exhibition include drawing, printmaking, painting, photography, paper making, ceramics, digital art, metal sculpture, fibre, stencil art and video.
