[REMOVED] Pulse Perspectives

Western Australia's talented young artists are celebrated in this yearly showcase, gauging the pulse of young people who will influence, empower and shape the world we live in. The selected works provide a window into young people’s private, social and artistic concerns. It is in turns an inspiring, rewarding and insightful look at the world through the minds of our most talented young artists. This year’s exhibition features 30 works by 2020 Year 12 Visual Arts graduates from 21 schools across Western Australia. 2020 presented unique challenges that impacted our community as a whole and placed particular pressure on Year 12 students. This time of global change highlighted the importance of community, social equality and creative expression, ideals that have been addressed by these young artists through the examination of themes such as gender, identity, environmental concern, family connection and social pressures. Coupled with works that celebrate the simple joys in life, this year's selection provides considered and engaging insight into contemporary youth culture. Have your say, vote for your favourite work in the Act-Belong-Commit People’s Choice Award. Voting is open from 10am, Wednesday 5 May until 5pm, Sunday 15 August with the winner announced on Wednesday 18 August 2021.
