n o t i o n s brings together the collaborative works of Brisbane based artists Glen Skien and Michelle Wild.

Within the collision of discarded materials and the use of collage and assemblage, their small handmade objects evoke a continual desire to retrieve and re-present new narratives. The outcomes are a series of wearable pieces and small objects that allow for whimsical and playful notions.
