Art comes face to face with architecture in Vision in Motion, a major project by artist Narelle Jubelin. Vision in Motion animates an Australian history of modernism, presenting a survey of Jubelin’s intricately sewn petit points of the past three decades alongside newly commissioned works inspired by architecture and the built environment.

Vision in Motion also features a new site specific installation by Jubelin, working with Percy Everett’s 1950s building originally designed for the Caulfield Technical School, now Monash University’s Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture, an iconic local modernist building.Read more about Narelle Jubelin: Vision in Motion
