Todd worked with the team at dLux Media Arts to present Scanlines, a major national survey exhibition. Scanlines is the first of its kind: a comprehensive group exhibition with an education focus that surveys the heritage of new media art in Australia since the 1980’s. A groundbreaking interactive exhibition design puts history at your fingertips: access video interviews with the artists and studio tours from the comfort of the gallery. The Scanlines exhibition was an exciting journey through time and included rare early works and well-known favourites by our best-known Australian contemporary artists.

BLACK – a coal case
Cessnock Regional Art Gallery
11 August – 18 September 2011
Coal: in a place like Cessnock it is underfoot, in the blood and even on the lungs.
Black – a coal case at Cessnock Regional Art gallery is a fluid weaving of our local heritage, told through the unique interpretations of contemporary artists. Within their distinct and diverse imaginings are the revelations of a past driven by mineral explorations, technological advancements and a rare sense of brotherhood.
While the ‘Valley of the Hunter’ was once intersected by rich coal veins, that wealth and the means of production have shifted. Sir Edgeworth David may have predicted the use and value of the Greta coal seam, but his foresight draws short as to what comes next?
A weaving of past, present and future, BLACK – a coal case acknowledges a rich history while critiquing and considering the future.
Artists:
Angelica Mesiti, Stephen James, David Hampton, Harrie Fasher, Liam Power, Sarah Smuts-Kennedy
