The Print Exposed exhibition 2026, Gold Street Studios VIC

Written By Bianca Conwell

I had such a wonderful day at the opening celebration of The Print Exposed exhibition on 2nd March at Gold Street Studios, in Trentham East VIC. It was wonderful to meet photographers Alex Gard (Tas) and Stuart Clook (NZ) whose work I have admired for a long time, and see such beautiful hand made work from so many artists in the exhibition. It was lovely to reconnect with so many like minded people.

I was incredibly honoured to be the recipient of the Mike Ware award in this show for my Daguerreotype Helix. The Mike Ware Award is judged on a combination of visual artistic merit, the craftsmanship of the work and  control of the scientific processes used.

Huge thanks as always to Ellie and Alan Young for all they do at Gold Street Studios.

Helix, 4×5” Daguerreotype on solid fine silver. Winner of the Mike Ware Award.
