A transformative exhibition set in the belly of Melbourne’s CBD, in-between will ignite, engage and transport you to otherworldly realms. Step away from the routine of your daily commute and follow the artists’ imaginary worlds set beyond the glass. Allow yourself to be drawn in to the landscape. See the familiar and search out the new. Release your imagination to wander through these installations with an inquisitive and childlike wonder. Each artist will take you somewhere different. An exhibition developed by 6 recent graduates of RMIT who want to explore alternative ‘gallery’ spaces to enchant and excite the viewer. ​

About the Artists

Radha Russell has recently completed her BA of Fines Arts (object based practice) at RMIT. Having grown up on the Mornington Peninsula and now based in Melbourne, she has been heavily influenced by geometric and linear structures as well as the organic landscape. Her work explores these contrasting themes with an abstract approach, aiming to build unity and connection between solidity and fluidity. Using materials such as silver, steel, resin and ink, Radha aims to create pieces that capture and entice the viewer to take a closer look, inviting them to engage their imagination.

Lauralai Wilson is a jewellery and object maker living and working in Melbourne. She graduated from the RMIT BAFA in Object based Practice in 2016. Her practice currently focuses on contemporary jewellery, led by considered explorations of stone, sand, silicone and silver along with adaptations of raw minerals, and alterations of surface and form through chemical synthesis. Her practice aims to dispel the lacklustre nature of routine, to provide the viewer or wearer with a temporary escapism and a connection to the otherworld.

Michelle Stewart was a country kid and grew up with an inquisitive eye for the little things that could be found in this vast openness. As an adult the fascination for finding joy in the smallest of details that nature has to offer is still strong. This intricate concatenation is at the heart of her creative expression. With an interest in the earthen palette she likes to explore her craft with glass, metal and clay. She hopes to present her small scale work in such a way that can express their meaning in a simple yet concise manner.

Katherine Hubble has recently completed my BA of Fine Art Gold and Silver Smithing in 2016 from RMIT. In the 2016 Graduate exhibition I was awarded the Wolf Wennrich Award for Gold and Silversmithing. In 2012 I graduated from North Metropolitan TAFE in West Australia with an Advanced Diploma in Jewellery Design. In 2013 I moved to Melbourne and found my love of making objects and wearable art and exploring their possibilities in the realm of craft art.

Dannielle Sturgeon is a jeweller and object maker currently living in Melbourne. In 2014 she completed an Advanced Diploma of Jewellery Design in Western Australia at the North Metropolitan Institute of Technology, graduating with the Koro Fine Australian Jewellery award for excellence in design and bench skill. Currently completing her Honours at RMIT, Dannielle has been refining her understanding and approaches towards working with industrial materials and processes. Her work is informed by the notion of construction and investigates the playful yet sometimes confronting nature of interacting with reflective elements.

Lana Scoville's
work explores the human body and nature through themes of impermanence, fragility and sensibility, investigating and uprooting our relationship and connection to our own identity which creates reflection about one's self, nature and where we sit along that line in the time of anthropocene. Her work is an anthology of mixed media inviting the viewer in by questioning their relationship to body and nature through intimate and abstract representations.
