Raewyn Martyn’s residency takes the form of a working studio set up around the investigation of how abstract paint-based interventions and wall works operate in public space, both on-site and outside of a public gallery setting. The working studio will research recent related practice and present these findings in the form of a reading table in the gallery, a blog, and studio work.
