Alison Page: Creative Shape Shifter

  • Free
  • Art

Designer, filmmaker and artist, Alison Page always has ideas on the go. In her first solo exhibition, Page dives into the ancient and contemporary stories that drive her design process. One of the first Indigenous designers to break into the scene in Sydney in the 1990s, her designs have contributed to a life force that she believes is vital for Indigenous and non-Indigenous people to connect to Country.

Discover her pioneering design through diverse objects, images and films, interiors, landscapes, public art, furniture, jewellery to coffee makers and a pair of skates.

This exhibition is part of Melbourne Design Week.

This exhibition has been made possible through the generous support of Clarke Hopkins Clarke Architects, Tilt Industrial Design and Breville. Page is the 2026 Robert Garland Treseder Fellow at the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning, University of Melbourne.
