This August, we're heading north.

From the 25th to the 4th of September, a group of artists will leave Daylesford and drive into the desert. The destination is White Cliffs, with stops along the way back including the famous Lake Mungo. We'll be staying in a dug out house in Whitecliffs and camping at Mungo. The aim is to experience the country, making art together for ten days.

As artists, we mostly work alone. Wide Open Road is the chance to come together and experience the same environment as a collective. That's the heart of it. We all create and make art in our own ways, but being in the same moment, in the same place, experiencing the same thing brings a real cohesion to the show.

The work comes home, is completed in our studios and goes up in a group show at RADIUS in late November, running through to Christmas.

There is space for 6 artists, 4 are already locked in, with 2 spaces remaining. If you want in, the expectation is simple. You contribute to the trip and to the art experience. Expenses and time commitments we incur along the way are divided equally between us.

That's it. Same place, different eyes. Come and see what the desert gives you.
