‘Paper Cut’ is an exhibition of works on paper from UWA’s Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art (CCWA), curated by CCWA Curator Lee Kinsella. Across a range of experiences and voices, the artists in ‘Paper Cut’ seek to motion change for a more equitable and just society. Displayed among UWA’s feminist and political posters with a wall dedicated to work by the feminist activist, artist and academic, Ann Newmarch, ‘Paper Cut’ looks at societal changes in Australia, reflected in art produced from the early 1900s onward.
