Curated by Anita Hirschhorn and presented in collaboration with Alta Forma, Naarm/Melbourne.

State of Flux explores the compelling dialogue between enamelling and glaze - two techniques that, when applied to different materials, share a process of transformation through heat. This project features contemporary jewellery, ceramics and objects presented across two sites: Alta Forma and Funaki. 

Enamelling on metal and glazing on clay both involve the fusion of glass to a surface, resulting in tactile finishes that highlight individual technique and the unpredictability of the kiln. State of Flux celebrates this shared language of surface and fire and offers a fresh perspective on age-old methods, re-imagined by contemporary makers.

Mio Kuhnen is represented by Bilk Gallery, NSW and Zu Designs, Tarndanya/Adelaide. Mascha Moje is represented by Alta Forma, Naarm/Melbourne. Kate Tucker is represented by Daine Singer, Naarm/Melbourne. Prue Venables is exclusively represented by Gallery Sally Dan-Cuthbert, Gadigal/Sydney.
