In conjunction with the exhibition: Living Treasures: Masters of Australian Craft Helen Britton – THE STORY SO FAR, Watt Space are hosting a special screening of a feature documentary Hunter From Elsewhere.

The film, made about Helen Britton and her practice by filmmaker Elena Alvarez Lutz, will be shown in the University House Theatrette on Saturday 21 February at 4pm. Please join us at Watt Space Gallery before the screening for a tour of the exhibition and a champagne cocktail as accompaniment to this poetic exploration of an excitingly unknown and highly inspiring universe. As we travel with this revered Australian artist around the globe, Helen Britton’s incredible attention to material and detail teaches us that the closer we look at things, the more they have to tell.
