  • Curated and Produced by: Wunder Gym

  • Presented by: Wyndham City & Hobsons Bay City Council

Wunder Gym is a practical art program to stretch and satisfy your creative curiosity. Emerging, established or simply curious creatives revel in the opportunity to extend their skills and practice culminating in a group exhibition.

Mentored by contemporary artist Elvis Richardson, artists from Melbourne’s Western regions draw inspiration from their local environment and communities as their playground. This prompt invites artists to be collectors, editors and curators using their local environment’s objects, recordings, sounds, images as their raw material and inspiration for an artwork. Exploring how their art practice changes the function of the chosen object offering new perspectives and beginnings.

In addition to the physical exhibition at The Annex in Werribee, large temporary public art installations will be located at Laneway Gallery at 44 Woods Street Laverton, and the Altona Civic Centre, called RECOLLECTION XL.
