RE:WORKED : : AN EXHIBITION OF NORM WAREHOUSE MAKERS

Re:Worked is an exhibition showcasing the diversity of creative projects that occur at Norm Warehouse. The exhibition explores the broad nature of design from the perspective of the hobbyist to the artist to the design professional.

Norm is a community workshop space in Coburg open to all. Studio holders and casual users have a chance to craft their own works in an experimental and iterative manner rather than relying on globalised mass-produced items. In this shared environment, folks consult one another, swap skills and ideas, and are part of a supportive and diverse community.

“Re:Worked” highlights the Norm ethos that enables people to repair and maintain objects rather than contribute to a throwaway society. The works on display will emphasise the use of recycled materials, and the communal rethinking of conventions which counterpose art and utility.

Jas is a furniture maker and a musician who has just completed a beautiful banjo. All of the components were made using Norms machinery.

We have some spaces available now starting from $340. Send us an email at [email protected] if you're interested in renting a space.

Our SCM panel saw might be our oldest machine but it's also probably the most reliable. This green machine is the backbone of our shared workshop and is available to anyone who has done the workshop induction.
