aMuse Artists Talk

Join revered local artist Leonie Wood as she talks about her exhibition aMuse – a new series of ceramics and works on paper inspired by her long-time fascination with Asian art.

In this deeply personal exhibition, Leonie also explores her relationship with her mother, who she credits with introducing her as a child to these influences through her own decorative preference toward Asian art forms. aMuse includes Leonie's first new ceramic works since the passing of her late husband and collaborator, Rick Wood in 2007.

5:30pm Thursday 9 October

Artspace Mackay, Civic Precinct, Gordon St
