Exhibition in focus: re/JOY—Vipoo Srivilasa
This is an Australian Design Centre ADC On Tour national exhibition touring project. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program and Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
Ceramic artist Vipoo Srivilasa's solo exhibition re/JOY represents his most significant body of work to date, and the largest he has ever attempted.
For this collaborative community project Vipoo has taken seven precious, yet broken, ceramic objects donated by strangers, each with their own story of migration to different parts of Australia. Around these pieces he has built seven towering, large-scale works, plus a smaller one in honour of his own story.
Presented as part of the Australian Design Centre’s 60th anniversary, re/JOY highlights the deep connections we form with items that evoke memories and emotions. Perfect for students, this exhibition explores diverse migration stories and how people build their different lives in Australia
