Collective Journey: Suspended Space features a group show of five artists undertaking a BFA at Monash University. Exploring what it means to be “adult-like” by untangling how critiques of our sociopolitical climate permeate the artworks of students who reminisce on youth. The exhibition explores the struggle for maturity, born from an interest in how artists who study in institutions find solace in the subject matter of youth. However, they often distance themselves from that childhood to display individualistic strength – the main factor that often defines “adulthood".

(Collective Journey: Suspended Space is a paired exhibition with Halle Warrender's Collective Journey: Mother's Footsteps)
