Looking at their own practices and the work of contemporary women artists from Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia, the panellists will discuss the role of portraiture in representing a ‘self’ which is shaped by gender, sex, age, culture, environment and human experience.
This free talk begins at 6pm, with a pay bar and nibbles from 7pm. Please note this event is R18
