Artist/educator James Pasakos founded Goldfields
Printmakers in 2012 as a point of connection for printmakers whose practice is based in
the Goldfields region of Victoria. In recent times the group has exhibited at the
Art Gallery of Ballarat, Art at Wharepuke, Kerikeri Bay of Islands, Northland, New
Zealand, and IMPACT 8, the International Print Conference in Dundee, Scotland.
On Saturday, October 4, the Goldfields
Printmakers will make their Melbourne debut in an eponymous group exhibition at
the Firestation Print Studio in Armadale.
Also making her Melbourne debut, if only in linocut form, is Moth Woman Vigilante #1 (pictured below).
