NGV Teens

Explore, design and bring ideas to life with Melbourne-based artists Gracia Haby and Louise Jennison in an immersive gallery day culminating in the creation of original artist zines.

Spend the morning with NGV Educators investigating diverse representations of the Australian environment, from historical and contemporary landscapes to works of art and design that communicate complex ideas about place, perspective and identity. Through close analysis of selected artworks, you will interpret visual language and develop concepts through observational drawing and critical annotation.

In the afternoon, collaborate with artists Gracia and Louise, renowned for their richly layered paper work, to plan and create a folded and stitched zine. Using collage, drawing, and imagery, develop a personal and conceptual response to environment and place. Guided by the artists, explore how image, text, sequencing and composition can transform landscapes, animals and natural textures into richly crafted artist zines.
