​making the un aims to document the experience and process of making work. It is a bringing together of materials that activate the gallery space to investigate how the viewer relates and interacts to the individual artists work. The un denotes the absence of a state. Sometimes it is necessary to unmake in order to create a resolved artwork.

Picture
Between and Beyond explores links between the body, architecture and the object. It considers the body as the landscape where the architecturally inspired work is sited and connects to its surrounds. Justine Austen and Andrew Weatherill create artwork that explores the relationship between man-made forms and environment. Austen is a contemporary jeweller and Weatherill has trained in fine art printmaking. Their artworks attempt to push the boundaries of these traditional art practices through the building of interactive installations and virtual environments.
