Transformation from Regional Gallery to Arts Precinct
Presenter: Dr Martina Mrongovius PhD, Art Producer, Lakes Art Precinct, Lake Macquarie City Council.

Relocating from New York City to Awabakal Country (Lake Macquarie, NSW), I was tasked with developing the Lake Arts Precinct. Council wanted a strategy; I needed to listen and learn. Many locals were unconformable, uninterested or unaware of their art gallery. The precinct needed to puncture audience barriers. We launched the Multi-Arts Pavilion mima – a versatile space for digital arts and performance and reimagined the MAC yapang Sculpture Park. Seeking artists to create new works we heard requests for development support and opportunities for experimentation. Collaborating with artists and academics we designed strategically to deepen connections. Opportunities emerged and audiences responded.

Beyond the Local – A Regional Mentorship

Kanangoor / Shimmer Exhibition Insight
Presenters: Amanda Bell, Badimia and Yued Artist and Curator and Lee Kinsella, Curator at University of Western Australia

In co-curating this exhibition, Amanda Bell and Lee Kinsella seek to grapple with the intangible operations of power as they operate within the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery at The University of Western Australia. Together, they recognise that this is uncomfortable and difficult territory, as the standard conventions within the Gallery are reconsidered and other opportunities for engagement tested.
Effectively, both the content of the exhibition and process by which we realise it, constantly teeters on the periphery of the familiar. To deal with difficult moments and to face that sense of being uncomfortable; to be off-balance, and to address questions about ‘why’? There is risk.

Burrinja – Crisis Relief, A Case Study
Presenter: Gareth Hart, Creative Director/CEO, Burrinja Cultural Centre

A Playground for Democracy Presenter: Liz Grandmaison, PhD Candidate, Flinders University

Wouldn’t it be great if we had a playground for democracy? Someplace challenging yet safe and accessible. A public ‘sandbox’ where folks could use objects and stories to learn and practice skills like deep listening, arguing without fighting, looking and seeing from different perspectives and sitting with discomfort where the stakes are low. We already have these spaces: galleries, libraries and museums.
Drawing on GLAM case studies and scholarly literature, this presentation will demonstrate how principles from critical pedagogies and radical democratic practices can be used together to tackle audience development, creative inclusion and the practice of democracy in tandem.

Making the Leap from Screen to Gallery: Custom Hardware for Digital Artists
Presenter: Orlando Mee

Orlando will share learnings from his 2022 Catapult mentorship under creative technologist Tim Gruchy.
"As an artist producing mostly digital content, I wanted to find ways of bringing my work into galleries which might not have the infrastructure to support multimedia works. With Tim's guidance, I learned to build and program my own custom devices which function as art objects in their own right."
From building electronic sculptures out of modified plastic toys to developing and producing homebrew cartridges for the Nintendo Game Boy, this talk explores ways for digital artists to transition their practice into the physical world.
Encounter with the Otherworldly
Presenter: Monika Morgenstern

Artists have become the translators of the transcendent in a secular world. Art, at best, is the visual representation of condensed thoughts and ideas and contemporary artists increasingly tackle the subject of ‘meaning’ through art. Exhibition spaces can create an atmosphere of ineffability and facilitate a feeling of enchantment in a difficult to navigate world. We do not have to look to the explicitly supernatural to create an opportunity for a numinous encounter. Galleries already have the ingredients needed. Space, light and sound can all help to create an atmosphere in with the otherworldly can be experienced.
