Exhibition Statement

Like stumbling upon a cache of forgotten letters or inherited keepsakes, TROVE reveals what twelve contemporary artists have unearthed, preserved, and transformed from personal and collective histories.

A group exhibition by the Three of Cups Club, a collective of women artists from the greater Moreton Bay region, TROVE presents rich and varied approaches through painting, ceramics, assemblage, weaving, drawing, digital illustration and photography. This diversity reflects the collective's founding values of collaboration, care, and creative exchange.

Work presented in TROVE functions as both a personal artefact and intentional archive—evidence of the quiet labour and material investigations involved in navigating identity, heritage and belonging through creative practice.

The exhibition questions what we choose to keep and what stories these treasures tell. In an age of disposability, planned obsolescence and subscription-based collecting, TROVE positions contemporary artmaking as an act of preservation and rebellion, celebrating practices and memories worth treasuring.
