Join Artspace for a collaborative workshop with Consuelo Cavaniglia—artist, co-founder of Sydenham International and 2016 recipient of the NSW Visual Art Fellowship (Emerging)—to explore strategies that early-career artists can adopt now to sustain a practice in the long term.

In this program, participants will map the current ecology for making and presenting work—from apartment galleries and artist-run initiatives to low-cost publishing—and reflect on how to carve out space within this landscape, or imagine new systems altogether. Recognising that problem-solving underpins any artistic process, the workshop also examines models for collaboration, skill-sharing and reciprocal economies. From facing rejection to riding the ebbs and flows of commercial success, this program offers various tools to futureproof your artistic practice.

To participate in the workshop, please bring along a current question or problem that you are facing in your practice, as well as an approach that has helped you in the past.
