To this day\, weekly art workshops continue with the women at Dame Phyllis Frost Centre in Melbourne and Tarrengower Women’s Prison in Central Victoria. \nWomen come to the art room with no preconceptions. They are often low in confidence\, have experienced trauma and have little\, if any\, formal training in visual art. However\, they come with a wealth of life experience and stories inherent in cultural diversity. \nOnce the women overcome their initial fear and self doubt\, they enter a world of creativity and a blossoming self determination. There is a positive\, focussed\, almost meditative energy in the art room\, as the women approach their work with palpable enthusiasm and commitment. The deep satisfaction and sense of achievement the women experience can be life changing and in some cases\, life saving. \nAnnually there is an exhibition showcasing women’s artwork in tandem with a theatre production at the Dame Phyllis Frost Centre\, open to invited audiences including friends and families of the women. \nTheir artwork communicates a multitude of themes\, voicing the women’s humanity\, vulnerability and dreams. The work is powerful\, sometimes raw\, often beautiful and always a testimony to resilience. \nThis exhibition at fortyfivedownstairs is a selection of artworks collected over the many years of Somebody’s Daughter’s work with women in Victorian prisons. \n              [/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Performances” tab_id=”1686807038317-7f7db3f9-85fd”][vc_column_text]Performances\nThursday 13 July 12.30pm\nFriday 14 July 12.30pm\nSaturday 15 July 1:30pm – PERFORMANCE\, ARTIST Q&A \nExperience the transformative power of art and storytelling as Somebody’s Daughter presents a captivating exhibition of artwork by women in Victorian prisons at fortyfivedownstairs.
