Alexandra Peters, Monash University (VIC) will develop new work through research into image archives here in Perth that will then be distorted before being silkscreened onto sourced material. These outcomes would situate themselves within the field of expanded painting through the interrogation of support structures and framing devices.

Hatched Studio Residency Program

PICA offers a studio residency to one interstate and one Perth-based Hatched artist every year. In 2023 an additional residency has been awarded to an interstate artist in acknowledgement of the high calibre of their proposal, which relates to specific research to be undertaken in Perth. The residency runs for five weeks from the opening week of the Hatched exhibition. This is an opportunity for the selected artists to develop or research new work with the artists encouraged to consider the trajectory of their wider practice. The residency project does not necessarily have to be connected to the work the artists present as part of Hatched. Hatched interstate and WA artists are selected through a callout.
