$Artists\u2019 Talk: Janet Mazenier and Celia Walker \u2013 Art Residency Insights$

DEPOT is proud to present an Artists’ Talk featuring Studio D3 artists Janet Mazenier and Celia Walker as they discuss insights from their recent art residencies.
For Janet Mazenier, her residencies in Ireland and Iceland were not conventional travels but thresholds. These were not simply places visited, but presences that impressed themselves into her process. She came to understand painting as a way of listening: listening to atmospheres, to silences, to the material voices of earth and weather.
Celia Walker’s residency in Australia was a fully immersive environmental experience, at BigCi Artist Residency on the fringes of the Wollemi National Park where artists were given total freedom and space to immerse themselves in their work and also in the surrounding environment.
Entry is FREE with refreshments provided by our partners Toi Toi Wines, Man O’ War and Swiftsure Vineyards. Koha will be accepted.
We look forward to seeing you there!
