The Art of Suff-Rage

As part of the Centenary of Women's Suffrage celebrations in Victoria this year I am creating one hundred ceramic Suffragists. Last week I fired the latest group in the kiln and I am now on the final countdown with only ten left to make. I recently took the seventy I had completed out to the Brunswick Town Hall to be part of the Counihan Gallery Women's Salon 2008: Persuasive Dissent Exhibition for an event title 'Conversations". This gathering celebrated art, music, politics and learning. My Suffragists created much discussion and people seemed to really enjoy the installation.
