The Age of Suff-Rage

ursula-suff.jpg

This year sees me travelling all over Victoria dressed as a Suffragist with my latest project The Age of Suff-Rage.I have been busy creating one hundred ceramic suffragists each around 30cm in height to celebrate the Centenary of Women's Suffrage in Victoria. I have teamed up with artist Fern Smith whom is researching and painting banners and we have created a travelling art installation. The project has its own newspaper with new editions with the latest news of our travels and both Fern and I have information on our websites about the project so as you can stay informed about our latest activities. Here I am pictured with some of my Suffragists including Vida Goldstein (centre)  for a Media event to announce the funding at my studio in the Gasworks Arts Park. Gasworks Arts Park has auspice the project and we received funding from the Department of Planning and Community Development Grants Program -Centenary of Women's Suffrage. Thank you to everyone who has helped to get the project up and running.
