This display features a small selection of works from the first major survey of artist Barbara Hanrahan's prolific printmaking career which brings to the fore the artist's feminist critique on the role of women and the family in domestic suburbia within an Australian context and explores the reverberation of these concerns in the 21st century.
The exhibition continues at Flinders University Museum of Art (located ground floor, Social Sciences North building) until 1 October 2021.
