2025 Residents

EUN JU CHO

Eun Ju Cho is a Korean-born artist working from Nipaluna/Hobart. She specialises in delicate and meticulous printmaking, painting and woodwork informed by her lived experience overlapping between Korean and Australian culture. Her work draws from the colours, shapes and patterns of traditional Korean crafts, such as changmoon (windows and doors in traditional Korean architecture) and bojagi (wrapping cloths). The movements delineated by the lines in her work create transitions and pathways — between Korean and Australian culture, dream to reality and oppression to freedom.

Eun Ju has a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Tasmania and her works have been featured in solo and group exhibitions, including in Nipaluna/Hobart, Sydney, New York and Daegu, Korea. She has been a twice finalist of both Henry Jones Art Prize and the Korea-Australia Arts Foundation Art Prize.

SARA MORAWETZ

Sara Morawetz is a conceptual artist whose research-based, interdisciplinary practice reflects critically and poetically on the matter and methods of science. Interested in the systems and structures that shape how we see and what we know, her work interrogates scientific and cultural apparatus that convey precision, accuracy and determinacy, yet remain slippery, speculative and whimsical when ‘tested in the field.’

Her projects involve collaborations with scientists from MIT, NASA and NIST, and her work has been exhibited throughout Australia and internationally, including exhibitions at the Museé des Arts et Métiers, Australian Consulate-General New York, RAPID PULSE, Bathurst Regional Art Gallery and Dominik Mersch Gallery. Sara was awarded her Ph.D. from the University of Sydney and has received numerous awards and prizes including ‘the churchie’ National Emerging Art Prize, the Vida Lahey Memorial Travelling Scholarship, the Marten Bequest Scholarship, as well as project funding from Creative Australia. Her work has been featured in publications including Frieze, Forbes, Scientific American, Aesthetica, Artist Profile, Prime: Arts Next Generation (Phaidon) and Documents of Contemporary Art: WALKING (Whitechapel Gallery / MIT Press).

George Kennedy is an emerging artist based in Nipaluna/Hobart, Lutruwita/Tasmania. George graduated from the School of Arts and Media, University of Tasmania in 2020, going on to hold their first solo exhibition at Devonport Regional Gallery in 2022. George won the Tasmanian Portrait Prize in 2019, as well as the National Macquarie Group Emerging Artist Prize in 2020. He has been a finalist in the Henry Jones Art Prize in 2023 and 2022, as well as the TIDAL prize in the same year. George completed artist residencies at Queenstown in 2021, as well as a two-month long residency on King Island in 2023.

LOREN KRONEMYER

Loren Kronemyer is an artist living and working in regional Lutruwita/Tasmania. Her works span objects, interactive and live performance, experimental media art, and large-scale worldbuilding projects aimed at exploring ecological futures and survival skills.

She works solo, and in collaboration as Pony Express. Her approach of deep and immersive research has led her to foster collaborations with a number of niche societies, labs, and specialists. These include Australia’s last broom factory, from whom she learned to make millet brooms for the project Millennial Reaper; and the World Archery federation, from whom she earned a coaching qualification for her project After Erika Eiffel, and the scientists at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research, with whom she developed her show Receiver. She received the first Masters of Biological Arts Degree from SymbioticA Lab at the University of Western Australia, and has a PhD from the University of Tasmania. Loren curates Faux Mo at Mona Foma Festival and is the Creative Director of Art Farm Birchs Bay.

Loren is the recipient of the two year studio residency (2024/2025)
