Five South Australian artists have been selected to undertake The Guildhouse Collections Project with Flinders University Museum of Art (FUMA) in 2024.

From early career to established practitioners, the selected artists represent a diverse range of creative practices including sculpture, installation, ceramic, printmaking, performance, and assemblage.

The successful artists in this iteration will research and develop major new work in parallel, not necessarily in collaboration, allowing an in-depth and broad response to the collection and curatorial theme of ‘The Disquiet’ developed by previous FUMA Collections Curator Nic Brown and supported by Curator Suzanne Close for the research and presentation periods.

Responding to the alternative cultural movements and political activism of the 1970s documented in FUMA’s Political Poster and Print collection and showcased in our previous Politics, Posters and PAM project, five South Australian artists—Bin Bai, Stephanie Doddridge, Sue Kneebone, Olga Sankey, and Truc Truong— come together to explore the relationship of their practices to the pressing issues of today.
