Creative Studio - Capsule Documentary Queanbeyan

Next date: Tuesday, 22 April 2025 | 10:00 AM to 02:00 PM

Explore the art of collaging — cutting, pasting, and crafting images together to tell a visual story — while creating your own capsule documentary with Bungendore-based multimedia artist Miah-Tya Nungheena Gowland.

In this three-day workshop, students will take inspiration from objects in the Powerhouse Collection and collaborate with their peers to curate a short video collage to preserve a special moment in time.

Students will be guided by the artists’s creative process, which often showcases themes that highlight her experience of growing up in small, rural Australian towns. Nungheena’s work exhibits the importance of preserving the lands we live on, and how it can shape us as creatives and human beings.

This free workshop is open for children aged 11-17. Participants should bring a packed lunch.
