Annual Exhibition details

Annual Exhibition - From this Place
From This Place brings together members of Valley Potters, a collective of ceramic artists from across Victoria, united by a shared passion for clay and the handmade. This exhibition celebrates the physical and sensory connection between hand, material, and form — offering a rich exploration of texture, surface, and touch.
From smooth porcelain to rough stoneware, each piece speaks to the intimacy of the maker’s process: a finger’s pressure, a tool’s mark, the trace of fire. From This Place invites viewers to engage with the subtle language of clay and to reflect on our human instinct to connect through touch.
In a world increasingly shaped by the digital and intangible, these works offer a grounding, physical experience. From This Place is a celebration of clay’s enduring ability to speak through the body — raw, immediate, and deeply felt.
