Clem Newchurch

Andrew Purvis sits down with Clem Newchurch to discuss his arts practice and how it ties to his cultural journey. Tune in to hear about Clem’s processes; from collecting natural material and being guided by its properties, to reflecting on museum collections to position his techniques in time and place. They yarn about the recent exhibition KAURNA: Still Here as an outcome of the Guildhouse Collections Project, all while Clem demonstrates weaving techniques for the audience.
