FIRST SPACE
The beauty of Bundjalung Country
Tywana Caldwell - Nunja
I draw upon my personal experiences and development within my art practice, leveraging my knowledge to inform each creation, which reflects an aspect of my identity. Throughout the creative process, I engage with my elders and ancestors, fostering a deep sense of belonging. The insight I have gained allows me to connect with diverse communities and better understand key elements of the Bundjalung nation. My journey is non-linear, yet it consistently leads me toward both personal and communal growth. Attaining inner peace creates a dynamic environment that promotes collective flourishing.
INNER SPACE
SMILING AND WAVING - UNEXPLODE THIS
In this exhibition, I present a part retrospective of my artistic journey, emphasising the evolution of my creative self over the years. This platform serves as a unique collaboration between my past and present selves, illuminating the dialogue between my earlier works and my current artistic voice. By revisiting and reinterpreting my older pieces, I aim to generate new concepts and creations, showcasing a cyclical, batch-based approach to my creativity. Additionally, I will draw from a substantial archive of materials and creative outputs accrued over the years, including unfinished works that hold potential for exploration. Many of these pieces are over 20 years old, offering a historical perspective that enriches the collaboration. Ultimately, this exhibition seeks to launch a concept line of apparel and fabrics, bridging the gap between my past and present artistic expressions, inviting viewers to engage with the continuity of my work and the evolution of my ideas.

( iteration I )
"Prinstallation" plays on the words 'Printmaking, Installation, and Constellation.' This ‘exhibition’ challenges traditional notions of what an exhibition can be, exploring how a space not designed for, can transform into a dynamic studio and how practice and performance intersect in a public setting. The artist will occupy the gallery for the duration of the exhibition, where outcomes remain uncertain, and experimentation will be guided or limited by the space itself.
Suffix. -tion. signifies the action or process of doing something, as well as the result or state that follows that action.
THE SPACE

Through this artwork, i attempt to place together, my experience of home as a private space located within an apartment, and as a something more expansive, something i had in common with those who inhabited the spaces in which that apartment was situated.
