As Melbourne artist Ana Tiquia reflects on her recent SPACED artist residency undertaken in the tiny regional town of Esperance, WA, she recalls how frequently processes of free exchange and sharing occurred during her time there, and how these practices ultimately came to shape her residency’s final outcome.
This is because Tiquia’s residency has not only involved her creating a new work to reflect on her residency experience, but it has also included an invitation to choose a work from the WA State Art Collection to be exhibited in conversation with her own work for the project’s exhibition phase at the Art Gallery of WA (AGWA).
