Graham Hay 

Bringing in 10 kg of messy clay, made the NGA curatorial staff extremely nervous before Graham's demonstration during the National Art Education Conference, while the Michigan and Texas workshops were fun, despite losing a computer en-route! 

He exhibited works in Denmark, Vic, SA, and the Chrissie Parrott 12x12x12x12 event. Papers for the Australian Ceramics Triennale and the Journal of Australian Ceramics, and image in a UK textbook, have now been published. 

A US article featuring his work and techniques is forthcoming. 

He was part of a school based residency organised by PICA, while next year Graham will continue to hack a 3D printer at Perth central TAFE, and demonstrate in a Queensland biannual conference.

In between kindy, childcare and sick kids, the most productive year since becoming a mother culminated in her first solo exhibition at Midland Junction Arts Centre in October. 

Sarah is looking forward to returning to the studio for a creative 2013.
