This exhibition by selected Gallery 101 artists examines the diversity of 
their multidisciplinary individuala rtistic practices. Importance is 
placed on the concepts and ideas which inform their work and in the 
gallery space the work is presented in such a manner as to recreate for 
the viewer a sense of visiting each artist's studio. Hence the experience 
is intended to be a more detailed and intimate reading of the works. By 
coming into contact with the artists' own private collections of ephemera 
and artefacts, we discover some extraordinary items such as a Grecian urn 
dated 300BC and the remains of a ceramic teapot which originated from the 
First Fleet. We also find a dilly bag made from recycled plastic; a 
rocking horse bound for the rubbish tip; animal bones from the Southern 
Simpson Desert and treasures amongst items washed up on shorelines. Notes, 
photographs, journals, diaries and references to classical literature and 
scientific data are evidence of the artists' exploratory journeys which 
have led them to produce artists' books as collectable items within their 
wider artistic practices.
