AUSTRALIAN PRINT WORKSHOP

APW Dowd Foundation Fellowship Exhibition

 

time : memory : place

by Lisa Waup

time : memory : place premieres an ambitious suite of 10 new original prints by Lisa Waup, produced in collaboration with APW printers during her APW Dowd Foundation Fellowship.

Through both the intaglio and lithographic mediums, Lisa explores the notions of searching and finding hidden history. A visual language that details a converging of pathways of connection that come together to ultimately form a whole. For Lisa, the process of looking for connection and understanding the concept of the known and unknown in our lives is key.

 

“There is movement through time in these designs and a chance that something lost will be found again. I trust that I will always carry with me in my heart, body and spirit, the wisdom of knowledge from my ancestors.” Lisa Waup (April 2024)

 

Lisa Waup is a mixed-cultural First Nations artist who was born in Narrm (Melbourne). Her multi-disciplinary arts practice encompasses a diverse range of media including weaving, printmaking, photography, sculpture, fashion, and digital art. With a deep connection to the symbolic power of materials Lisa’s work reflects her personal experiences, family history, Country, and broader historical narratives. Through her arts practice, Waup weaves together threads of lost history, ancestral relationships, motherhood, and the passage of time to create a contemporary expression that speaks to her past, present, and future.

Australian Print Workshop gratefully acknowledges The Dowd Foundation for their generous support of this important program that enabled us to work in collaboration with Lisa Waup and support her in the creation of a truly magnificent suite of ten new original fine art prints.

Exhibition continues until 11 May 2024.
