Mudpickers features artists Suzannah Babicci, Lauren Jaye Carter, Jane Hawkins, Hannah Murray, Rhonda Payne and Bronwyn Smith. The exhibition collectively maps the artists’ experiences with place and an investigation of memory and history. The works reflect a shared interest in trawling across the mudflats of Townsville to find hidden treasures in the layers, colours, textures and botanical forms.
