Amidst the chaos of this month, these two exhibitions have been installing alongside mine and are running until November 9 as part of Wedge 2025. The exhibition is part of Wedge: the Australian Ceramics Triennale, and presents 11 WA and international artists who investigate function and form, offering contemporary techniques alongside traditional craft methods.
Vessels
7 September - 9 November, 2025

Through showcasing these artists as contemporary masters of these ancient traditions, Vessels highlights the timeless relevance of their crafts, and their ability to preserve culture and memories through their continued practice.
Where Do We Truly Belong
Nazerul Ben-Dzulkefli and Kasia Kolokow
7 September - 9 November, 2025
At Midland Junction Arts Centre
This exhibition explores the intricate nuances surrounding home and belonging through the weaving and unfolding of personal narratives, which are imbued into and onto objects that serve as visual and emotional markers of one’s presence—both in ancestral homelands and in the new terrains where one chooses to sink roots.
Ben-Dzulkefli and Kolikow address states of belonging as a sense of connection, acceptance, and the multi-layered experiences within spaces and communities. Sense of home and belonging are ever-evolving, shaped by experiences, relationships, and the ever-changing landscapes of our lives. They aim to capture the essence of this journey and what it means to truly belong.
It's great seeing both textile and ceramic forms presented alongside one another in these two complimentary exhibitions, showing a stunning range of techniques and scale, and they are a wonderful frame through which visitors will approach Ripairian, which is inside a tiny room, and has the feeling of being tucked under the stairs.
