Helpmann Academy Residency Artists | Lauren Downton, Tiarnie Edwards, Cameron Long & Chelsie Morey

Opening Friday 28 February 6-8pm | Adelaide Fringe Festival

In ‘Thick and Thin,’ Helpmann Academy 2024 Residency Artists Lauren Downton, Tiarnie Edwards, Cameron Longshaw and Chelsie Morey showcase a vibrant interplay of porcelain, clay, wood, and steel. Each artist pushes their medium in unique directions, challenging expectations.

Their installations reveal the tension and harmony between materials - metal’s impermeability, clay’s earthiness, wood’s warmth and porcelain’s fragility. ‘Thick and Thin’ encourages us to reflect on the sources of strength and vulnerability in both art and life. The artists reinterpret traditional forms, inviting audiences to explore a realm where balance is both elusive and vital.
