Collective Conversations // Perth Design Week 2023
An insightful panel discussion with Neil Cownie, architect; Michelle Blakeley, architect; Elaine McElroy, interior designer; and Joanna Lamb, artist, for Perth Design Week 2023.
Deliberate inclusion of contemporary art in the interior design strategy when restoring or re-developing heritage buildings, offers ways for the past to be experienced in the present, and for the present to activate the past.
Examples include the State Buildings in Perth and Ace Hotel Sydney where curated art collections and commissioning artists have created impressive focal points that recontextualise and enliven the building.
Recorded at the Art Collective WA gallery, 29 March 2023.
