“My studio is in a rather cramped and cluttered room at home in Northcote. I’ve been working in it for around 12 years now. It’s good for doing a lot of work at any time but not so good when I want to switch off.”
Michael Doolan
“My studio is in the Abbotsford Convent, on the second level of the convent building. It’s a small space that used to be part of a dormitory for nuns, novices and postulants.”
Chris Bond
“I have an odd sort of studio, a tiny room in the middle of my house. There are only one or two square metres of space I can actually walk in, the rest is taken up by shelves, desks and equipment.”
Yhonnie Scarce
“I keep a workspace at home. It’s quite an intimate little space. It’s where I work on the ideas and the research-based part of my practice. I do all the physical work, all the actual glassblowing, in Adelaide’s JamFactory.”
Dale Cox
“I was pretty lucky to end up here. For four or five years I was working from home here in Eltham, painting in my pyjamas. It was fine for a time but it got out of hand with two kids around. The tipping point came when my little girl painted over one of my paintings.”
Jess Johnson
“This isn’t actually my studio. It belongs to Adele Mills, and I’m just subletting it for three months while she’s away in America. I’ve had three different studios at Gertrude Contemporary: my own one while I was a studio artist from 2012 to 2014, and two others I’ve subletted for short periods while artists have been away on residencies.”
