Catherine Griffiths: Provocations and Poetics

Join us for a public lecture with internationally recognised designer and artist, Catherine Griffiths, who will delve into the provocations and poetics of an expanded socially-engaged interdisciplinary practice.

This public lecture is presented as part of the exhibition Catherine Griffiths: Out of Line, the largest presentation of her work in Australia to date.

For four decades, Griffiths has examined the potentials of language, form, and public space, working across graphic design, typography, sculpture, and site-specific installation. Her work reconfigures typographic context and meaning through word-play, shifts in scale, and the immersive experience, altering not only how we perceive but also interact with language from the concrete to the abstract.

In this lecture, Griffiths will discuss her process in working typographically, from time-based media to printed matter, spatial interventions to sound pieces, reflecting on how these elements shape public engagement and dialogue.
