Tank 4 Gallery
The Receive>Respond arts challenge and culminating exhibition provide an opportunity for artists aged 15 to 25 in the Cairns region to share their passion for art and collaboration.
The challenge is simple. Artists create an artwork and then are paired Secret Santa style with another artist. Each artist responds to their received artwork with a new artwork and voila, Receive>Respond.
The resulting exhibition places the paired works together and gives the artists the chance to meet each other and discuss their responses.
The challenge highlights the talent and diversity of creative expression here in our own backyard.
Special thanks to this year’s Youth Curator, Bianca Sordelli and Guest Selection Panellist, Cairns Art Gallery Curator, Kylie Burke.
