MWP publications at THE BALLARAT IMAGINARIUM

As of this week, MWP books There was once…The collected fairy tales and Fallen Women are available at the splendid Ballarat Imaginarium. 

Adjacent to historic Ballarat Mechanic’s Institute Library in centrally located Sturt Street, Ballarat (pictured top), this new kid on the block is set to be the go-to gallery and retail outlet for locals and visitors alike. What sets it aside from the rest is that it’s the only retailer in Ballarat that exclusively carries works by local makers, including visual artists, sculptors, ceramicists, jewellers, clothing designers, musicians, writers and more. 

The Ballarat Imaginarium is the result of the remarkable vision of local artist, Melinda Muscat, pictured above. 

The previous occupant of the shop was another notable MWP stockist, Playing in the Attic, which still carries our books and zines, but has relocated to nearby Talbot. It is due to reopen in March. (More about this in a future post).

Looming Deadlines


On this, another wet, wintry Ballarat morning, I soak up the vista from my work table: another table with another pile of work with another hovering deadline. 

Above, foreground: ink drawings on linoleum blocks, preparatory work for my forthcoming residency at Melbourne Athenaeum Librarybeginning late June. 

On the second work table (most of it not visible in this view): artwork and related paraphernalia for PATTERNS OF COLLECTING/From the Bower at the Johnston Collection, opening June 4. (The framed insect collection on the far wall will shortly be packed up for the same show).

Below: A lino block for the AIR, drawn up and ready to go.

Playing in the Attic is centrally located in Sturt Street, one of Ballarat's finest thoroughfares.
