To celebrate International Women’s Day 2022, join us for a one-hour panel discussion on women in art and design.

Hear from leading Naarm based practitioners on their shared considerations and memories of the Nicholas Building—recognising its significance both as a tangible space and a metaphor.

From there, the discussion will flow through histories, sensibilities, positionalities and areas of practice.

SH_MMER honours and discusses a range of practitioners and disciplines, including fashion, architecture, interior design, furniture, film and multimedia. It investigates their intersections, interrogating the boundaries between design and art and between practice and research.

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
