For Ali Noble, her textile wall hangings and steel sculptures offer alchemic possibilities: whereby cutting, gluing and construction invite reinvention, renewal, and re-presentation of reality. Ali has exhibited in solo and group exhibtions throughout Australia. In 2020, she was included in a Sydney Morning Herald feature “Innovative textile art smashing its way into our art galleries” by Chloe Wolifson.
Yvette Hamilton works across photomedia, video installation and interactivity. Her interdisciplinary practice creates work that takes an exploratory approach to visuality and presence. Recently she has been a finalist in the Grace Cossington Smith Award, the Paramor Prize, the Josephine Ulrick & Winn Schubert Award, the Fishers Ghost Art Prize, and the Meroogal Women’s Art Prize. She has been the recipient of an Australia Council Artstart grant, and was the Sydney College of the Arts winner of the Dominik Mersch Gallery Award.
Helen Shelley lives and works in Sydney. Shelley graduated from the Canberra School of Art, Australian National University with first class honours. In 2015 she graduated from Sydney College of the Arts with a Masters Degree in Painting. She has held solo exhibitions at Grant Pirrie, Flinders Street Gallery, Canberra Contemporary Art Space, Galerie pompom and has been included in exhibitions at First Draft Gallery, Casula Powerhouse, Rubicon Ari and James Makin Gallery. Shelley has been a finalist in the Churchie and most recently the Blake Prize. Her mixed media painting practice is concerned with developing personal rituals that bring to mind and honour late loved ones, along with capturing moments of the sublime and transcendental as observed in the everyday.
Lisa Sammut’s practice encompasses sculpture, light, video and installation.
