Deep Winter

Deep Winter is As We Are’s visual arts exhibition and installation created by leading West Australian visual artists – Katrina Barber, Greg Barr, Mathew Clarke, Jane Ryan and Amanda White. All lead artists experience intellectual disability and use multidisciplinary practices in the creation of their works.
