Beacon

‘Beacon’ is an exhibition by artists from Arts Access Victoria’s Artstop Studio.

This exhibition explores the concept of disability, identity, safety, and communication through light and colour. The work is a response to the idea of a beacon. Creating new ways of relating to the way light acts as a warning, signal, or celebration.
