John Pratt
John Pratt is a graphic artist working across a diverse range of media, including printmaking, drawing, collage, artist’s books, and public space projections. His practice is driven by an ongoing exploration of the relationship between people and the environments they inhabit.
Through a series of exhibitions, John has examined the impact of human presence across a wide variety of landscapes—from natural parks in the ACT and southern coastal regions to suburban settings and the dynamic streetscapes of the CBD. His work reflects a deep interest in how we interact with, shape, and are shaped by these spaces.
At the core of his practice is an investigation into the interchange between human existence and the physical world. His current work builds on this foundation, delving further into our connection with natural elements—particularly water—and how these forces influence our experience of place.
Bronte Bell is a printmaker and textile artist based on Ngunnawal Ngambri Country. Her practice is rooted in material exploration, focusing on found and discarded textiles as a means of storytelling.
Through collection, deconstruction, and reconstruction processes, she engages with themes of transformation, waste, and the intersection of the natural and manufactured worlds.
Her practice is guided by a slow and considered approach, embracing the imperfections of worn materials and allowing their histories to dictate new forms.
Bronte Graduated from ANU School of Art and Design’s Printmaking department in 2020.
