GALLERY 1
On Show 2023 – Transition
Canberra Art Workshop
The Canberra Art Workshop On Show 2023 – Transition exhibition of members’ work provides an opportunity to represent the transitions we go through as artists, including the transitions occurring and affecting us in the world today. As we grow and change as artists, new things challenge us and capture our imagination. The world around us has changed so much since 2019 (not all of it for the better). There is no better medium than art to demonstrate these changes.
