Salon Hang

Salon Hang is a group exhibition in Craft Victoria's Vitrine Gallery, curated by Madeleine Thornton-Smith.

Artists featured include Georgia Anson, Ruby Brown, Lauren Cameron, Georgina Proud, Samantha Seary, Madeleine Thornton-Smith, Kate Tucker and Jasminka Ward-Matievic.

Salon Hang seeks to elevate the role of the frame in Western art. This exhibition contends that the frame exists beyond its status as a boundary – it can also be a space of experimentation and opportunity. In Salon Hang, female and non-binary artists working in various craft mediums have made frames that function as artworks. As well as somewhere to display paintings, the 'salon' was a place where women came together to educate themselves. Salon Hang attempts to connect women and non-binary artists from various creative backgrounds, using the frame and craftwork as symbols for collective solidarity.

Salon Hang is supported by the City of Melbourne.
