in.the.pod with Jodie Cunningham

Jodie Cunningham lives in a hot pink house, makes art in her studio at the M16artspace, and works as CEO + Artistic Director at Craft + Design Canberra. in.the.pod, we talk to Jodie about the upcoming Craft + Design Festival 2024.

Jodie Cunningham is a Canberra based visual artist and maker of objects and jewellery. She has an MFA, UNSW; BFA with University Medal, ANU and was the recipient of the Fulbright Scholarship for the Visual Arts. 

A self confessed chromofile Cunningham has an obsession with colour, circles, pattern, symbolism and the delights of perspex. Her perspex objects are vibrant constructions of colour, that play on the qualities of materiality and light. She uses patterns and symbols sourced from local architecture and domestic spaces that explore the containment of time and memory in the membranes of the home and the architecture of our city.
