Description:
Raise your hand if you've found some trash at your local opshop and declared 'I'm going to make something out of this!' Only to rediscover it two years later covered in thick layer of hay fever dust. Sinusitis and itchy eyes aside, this Sunday why not turn that trash in to show-stopping treasure with a little guidance from jeweller Emma Grace at one of her 'Treasury' workshops? BYO found objects and battered ol' bling.

Do you shop at Suzanne? How about Katies? No? Ha ha! You laugh at my stupid question. Well do you buy things from op shops that came from these places only last decade? Probably, I have. And it turns out this does not go with that (at Suzanne-via-Savers). Op shops are shit now, give up.
Guess what is even more shit? Vintage shops.

Description:
What happens when you build societies from scratch? Well, you're living in one right now, but imagine if you had the chance to start again; how would you play it? Would scrambled eggs play a part in your new world? Would every sentence begin by law with the letter W? Why, this collaboration between Tasmanian ARI Six_a and local collective Tape Projects explores this notion and runs with it over three days, deep in the safe confines of the Nicholas building.

Description:
The Nicholas Building is like the creepy H. R. Giger -designed spacecraft in Alien. In this analogy the resident jewellers, milliners and various other breeds of artist are creepy alien eggs laying dormant within. Once a year you get to pretend you are Ian Holm and cautiously prowl the halls until an egg opens, a facehugger leaps out and and lays its unholy seed into your belly.

Description:
Ashlee Laing's Delusional Dimensions explores the complex emotional space surrounding our attractions. Ashlee will lay out metaphysical onto physical using a series of video projections.
