Time Place Space is a salon exhibition of artworks seeded through ten artists’ residencies under the King Island Council’s Artist Residency Program.

Based at the King Island Gallery and Airport, this major project opens on Sunday 1 September. A six-week salon style exhibition and installation with works spanning across contemporary painting, printmaking, photography, video, mixed media, textile and poetry.
