Showcasing a medium that has been in use for hundreds of years, the exhibition GRAPHITE takes a fresh look through the lens of contemporary Australian drawing. For seasoned artists who have explored graphite's intricacies, this exhibition not only serves as a reverent tribute to an enduring companion, it foregrounds the medium’s lesser known qualities. For new drawing enthusiasts and the general public more broadly, we hope this show will be equally captivating. Through the work of nine artists, each with a unique approach to the medium, this exhibition provides an exploration of the breadth of graphite's material potential.
