Past Resident2010: Creative Australia
Rose Nolan
Rose Nolan lives and works in Melbourne, Australia. Her practice has been structured according to several self-devised categories. These include Banners, Constructed Work, Flat Work, Homework and Word Work. These categories are fluid and often accompanied by a shift in media and scale – from the discrete to the monumental. Construction is both process and metaphor in her art: letters are combined into words, and words into banners, objects or images. She invites us into a new space of play between seeing and reading, often merging vulnerability and bravado, self-doubt and affirmation.

Monika Marklinger
With a point of departure in painting, Marklinger intertwines her individual language with the reproducable expressions of society. Characteristic of her work is an emphasis on visual questions from a social and political perspective. She seldom works with single pictures but rather strives to integrate her stories and pictorial elements in collages and installations full of details. Marklinger has exhibited in several venues in Sweden and abroad, including Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden, Galerie im Taxispalais, Innsbruck, Austria, and the Prince of Wales Museum, Bombay, India. Represented by Galleri Flach+Thulin, Stockholm.
