Louise Bennett
Media Art Asia Pacific (MAAP) Residency Award
Commencing in March 2015, MAAP SPACE will host Louise Bennett in a special artist residency program that will allow Louise to develop new work with full access to Media Bank equipment and gallery space. This project will enable Louise to process and experiment with raw media materials collected in Indonesia along with other recordings made in Brisbane. Director Kim Machan says of the residency “It is great to have Louise working here. I’ve admired her investigations and thoughtful projects for some time and look forward to watching her work unfold”. It is the intention of this residency that an exhibition will follow later in 2015.

Soft Site in Lou Hubbard's artist book
Erika bought Lou Hubbard's artist book and discovered images from our Annie St show. Erika Scott and I co-curated the group exhibition titled 'Soft Site' at Kangaroo Hotel, Brisbane in 2011. Artists Tim Woodward and Chris Bennie also exhibited with Lou. They were invited to include work that responded to the site of a cheap and basic Queensland hotel.
