Adelaide Contemporary Experimental ends the year with Studios: 2024, a group exhibition featuring new commissions by the 2024 ACE Studio Program artists, Carly Tarkari Dodd, Abbey Murdoch, Marian Sandberg, Katey Smoker and Emmaline Zanelli.

This exhibition showcases the diverse practices and work developed as part of ACE’s annual Studio Program – a fully-supported professional development opportunity for South Australian artists.

Curated by ACE Artistic Director Danni Zuvela, the exhibition features the many disciplines of the 2024 Studio Program artists, including painting, video, installation, assemblage and sculpture.

Carly Tarkari Dodd uses traditional Ngarrindjeri weaving techniques to critique regimes of adornment, reimagining the jewels of Empire in contemporary soft-sculptural forms; Abbey Murdoch combines video with scavenged materials to explore the housing crisis through the lens of low-income communities; Marian Sandberg generates a complex intertwining of bodily, physical and digital systems to reclaim and materialise a simultaneously intimate and remote relationship with reproductive technology; Katey Smoker embraces the material of paint, extending it into the third dimension with brush-less, canvas-less paintings; and Emmaline Zanelli repurposes exotic pet cages to reflect on the structures and apparatuses that produce value within the interlocking worlds we share.

The exhibition includes a digital catalogue accessible in the gallery on an iPad or via the Adelaide Contemporary Experimental website.
