Linda Hughes has a fantastic new exhibition on at Craft Victoria untill the 12th June.  Metonymy explores the role of the ‘stripe’ as a device to attract attention and as a visual element to represent danger. I would love to own one of her pieces, her work is really amazing. Check out some of her other pieces at Studio Ingot in Brunswick Street.
