COLLABORATION with Jane Longhurst
March 2025

Ten Days on the Island

In March 2025 MADE collaborated with Jane Longhurst on her final instalment of The Black Bag Trilogy. Presented in Ten Days on the Island in the Print Hall at the Old Mercury Building, LIFE/CYCLE draws inspiration from Marjorie Bligh, Tasmania's legendary housewife and recycling pioneer - a deeply moving and powerful meditation on the fragility of contemporary life and the enduring human quest for security and purpose.

Jane Longhurst is an acclaimed Tasmanian artist and MADE was proud to be an integral part in her directorial debut.
