The Gold Award 2022 winner Wendy Sharpe returns to Rockhampton in July 2024 for a very special artwork. As winner of the Archibald Prize and Sulman Prize, Sharpe is one of Australia’s most awarded painters. She is also a muralist; her most recent mural was commissioned by the Jewish Museum in Sydney; a deeply personal work that sadly, due to pandemic closures, was never on public view. Rockhampton Museum of Art has invited Sharpe to create a new mural on site here in Central Queensland. Visit between 8 – 14 July to see the artist in action in the Atrium Gallery.
Exhibition Dates: 15 July 2024 – 9 February 2025
Live Painting on Site: 8 – 14 July 2024
Location: Atrium Gallery, Rockhampton Museum of Art, 220 Quay Street, Rockhampton, QLD
