Isabella Darcy is an emerging cross-media artist based in Melbourne, Australia. Her practice follows an interest in the systems and flux of value within consumable objects and design, reconsidering and exploring value and the alignment with ways of contemporary culture, material culture, and human consumption.
Emily Dang is an artist and sociologist, with a passion for addressing gendered and racial inequalities.
Ashley Perry is an interdisciplinary Goenpul artist from Quandamooka country. His recent works come from research into Quandamooka cultural practices, focusing on material culture held in museum, university and private collections. Perry works across sculpture, drawing, printmaking and new media, using traditional processes such as copperplate etching to more contemporary such as .html programming.
Alisha Abate's primary sculptural concern is how the living body inhabits space, alongside the reciprocal relationship of how space is constructed.
