Exhibited items
The exhibition was curated in partnership with José Roberston, an early member of Splinters who has worked as a curator at the National Gallery of Australia, managed multimedia at the National Gallery of Australia, and was Head of Digital Programmes at the National Portrait Gallery in London. We selected a range of items from the collection at the ACT Heritage Library, and solicited a number of items from private collections, such as the sculptures by Stuart Vaskess and Adam Herbst, the Blood Dress by Penelope Sands and Pauline Cady, the puppets from Andy Freer, and some of the late David Branon's personal effects from his family. The final selection, arrangement and mounting of exhibits was led by Mark Bayly, Exhibition team leader at the Canberra Museum and Gallery. The exhibited works in each medium can be explored using the menu at top.
