For Christmas when he was ten, Ben was given a model skul l. For some, that would make for an odd gift, but not for Ben, who estimates he has created between 3 to 7 million drawings in his life and most of them feature this very skull. Ben’s illustrations have a rockstar-pirate-hybrid-Andy Warhol flair. He specialises in poking fun at celebrities, literally peeling back layers of pretence to bare bones.

Ceramics is a medium particularly suited to memorialising the intimacies of the everyday. Sassy Park's work plays with accepted traditions and conventions within art to express notions of vulnerability and fragility. Her figures painted with slips and underglazes provoke empathy from audiences, drawing them to look more closely and engage with the object. Using scale and humour, and often exploring the forgotten or overlooked, Park's figures reflect equally on questions of history and its representation as well as the small moments of life.

Blak Douglas, born Adam Douglas Hill in Blacktown (1970), Western Sydney to a Dhungatti Father and Caucasian Mother, is an artist well-attuned to the power of language, of words, as well as images1. He adopted the professional name Blak Douglas to reflect the two halves of his genealogy. Douglas uses his artistic identity to reclaim and self-identify; “Douglas being my middle name whilst my “ness'' is primarily BLAK. ‘Blakness’ here is all about who is actually calling the pot ‘black’, or defining ‘blackness’: the people who live it, or those who prefer to think about it by degrees of ‘authenticity’ or through rosecoloured Primitivist glasses.”
