INCREMENT
An exhibition of work by lecturers and graduates from
Swan TAFE’s Advanced Diploma in Applied Environmental Art.

This inaugural exhibition aims to explore the transition of the
relationship from one that is based around lecturer/student, to
that of fellow artists, who may work, collaborate and exhibit
together. The exhibition also highlights the diverse and intriguing
range of contemporary art which has Midland Campus at its epicentre
in some way.
The exhibiting artists are: Michael Arnold, Maria Blackmore,
Peter Dailey, Mary Dudin, Stuart Elliott, Tami Escancy, Eva Fernandez,
Richard Foulds, Michael Jurotte, Peg Lyon, Perdita Phillips, Lorraine
Pichette, Sue Starcken and Karin Wallace.
