Works on paper is a broad term that encompasses any artwork that uses paper as its primary surface. This versatile medium allows for a wide range of artistic expression, from traditional techniques like drawing and printmaking to more experimental approaches involving collage, sculpture, and book art.
The Works on paper exhibition showcases the creative versatility of four Hobart-based artists: Rebecca Coote, Ange Cooper, Kaye Green, and Cathryn McCarthy-Ross. Each artist brings a unique perspective and technique to the exhibition, highlighting the many ways paper can be transformed into an expressive and tactile medium.
Through prints, drawings, artist books, collages, sculptures, and paintings, the exhibition demonstrates how paper is not merely a surface, but a central player in the artistic process. Paper becomes more than a support — it is the star of the show.
