The show aims to provide a one-of-a-kind national overview of new practice drawn from the fields of contemporary art, craft, applied art and design.The Way of Matter includes Anna-Rose Carpenter, Brittnee Covich, Caroline Konarkowska, Floyd Perry, Fran Carter, Jane Lehtinen, Jasmine Te Hira, Jieun Kim, Kim Whalen, Kylie Sinkovich, Macarena Bernal, Melissa McMahon, Nik Hanton, Nyree McInally, Nofoagaoalii Me, Oliver Roake, Seung Eon Pyo, Cameron Ralston and Kelsey O'Hagan.
