Unrealised Potential

Exhibition dates: 5 November - 15 January
Preview: Thursday 4 November 6:00 - 8:00pm

Unrealised Potential is a collaborative group exhibition instigated by artist/curator Mike Chavez-Dawson. The show explores the creative potential of artists' unrealised projects, blurring the lines between artist, curator, visitor and producer.

Mike Chavez-Dawson together with artists Sam Ely and Lynn Harris, co-founders of Unrealised Projects (2003-2010), re-visit Chavez-Dawson's original project Potential Hits (2003), to present an amassed collection of artists unfulfilled proposals, offering visitors the opportunity to purchase the right to interpret and realise an artist's idea.
