Now that West Space is rent free for exhibiting artists in 2014, we thought what better way to start the year by supporting a selection of younger artists to present recent work alongside developing new work. We are excited to present this new initiative, which will also see the artists inhabiting the gallery spaces during January creating new work for this exhibition. West Space staff, Board and Committee Members will mentor and assist participating artists to help realise their individual projects.
Sheena Colquhoun is an artist and poet who graduated from Fine Arts (Honours) at Monash University in 2014. She was the recipient of the Sunshine Coast New Media Art award in 2015, and has been published in UK based Journal Tender. She has exhibited locally at Seventh Gallery, West Space and Bus Projects as well as internationally.
Avni Dauti is a multidisciplinary artist based in Melbourne. Dauti completed an Honors degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts at Monash University in 2013. In 2019 he has undertaken a residency with Rebecca Vaughn at Rupert in Lithuania, and has previously exhibited at West Space, TCB Art Inc., Living Museum of the West, TRAMA Centro, Seventh Gallery, Kings ARI, MADA Gallery, and Kingston Art Centre.
Rosie Isaac is a visual artist and writer in Naarm/Melbourne. Interested in art-making that imagines different material and social futures, Rosie's research-based practice focuses on language as it is experienced in the body while reading, in relationships, and via social institutions. Rosie has recently presented across the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Liquid Architecture, Next Wave, Gertrude Contemporary and Adelaide Contemporary Experimental.
