Workshop 2023

An exhibition by recent Master of Architecture students that transforms the gallery into a space for drawing and process.

Exhibition dates: 23 February till March 18 2023

The Tin Sheds sat quiet on City Road in those post-war years, until the Artists came. The Sheds had been used for military experiments during the war, but records of what was found behind their bolted doors are hazy. Over the decades  rumours began to spread, rumours, never verified, of some kind of apparatus that could draw… These rumours had long faded to myth, until Students returned to Tin Sheds this year to find in the space…a Drawing Machine.

In the wake of this discovery, Workshop 2023 is a return of the gallery to drawing and to process. For a month the Tin Sheds will be a facility for students and the community to work on ideas, to spend time in a space of iteration and experiment. 

Exhibition by recent Master of Architecture graduates: Caleb Niethe, Sarah Anstee, Kevin Hwang, and Carmelo Nastasi.

Draw, tear, space! a drawing workshop

Venue: Tin Sheds Gallery

Sometimes the use of a drawing machine requires a little instruction. The Tin Sheds invites all to ‘Draw, tear, space!’, a led workshop experimenting with the boundaries between drawing as art and drawing as work. Think Paint and Sip, but with a mysterious twist…
