TALITHA KENNEDY
-
Talitha Kennedy consistently works with black leather for its tactile corporeality and macabre context to embody the fraught intimacy with the natural world. Her hand-stitched soft sculptures simultaneously lifeless and budding with new growth, personify natural forces in a constructed world.
Talitha has shown installations, sculptures and drawings widely throughout Australia with solo shows including Artisan Brisbane, Stockroom Kyneton, Chapman & Bailey Melbourne, MARS Melbourne, Umbrella Townsville and NCCA Darwin. Her work has been curated into survey exhibitions including PRICK! Needlework Now RMIT Gallery Melbourne, Fresh Material: New Australian Textile Art, Perc Tucker Regional Gallery Townsville, Fecund: Fertile Worlds Artback NT Touring Exhibition, and Legacy: Reflections on Mabo which toured through Visions Australia (2019 – 2023) to 10 public galleries. Talitha is based in Naarm Melbourne and holds an MVA from Charles Darwin University, Darwin NT.
