Meet the Artist
Born on Ngunnawal Country, Saskia Haalebos is a multi-disciplinary artist who works with text, humour, film, melancholy, performance, printmaking—whatever the idea calls for really. With an existentialist heart and autism, most of her work is about memory, mortality, empathy or mis/communication.
Saskia has exhibited in local and interstate galleries; been awarded residencies with Megalo, CCAS and The Unconformity (TAS); and has work in various collections, including the NLA. Alongside this, she has created workshops for the NGA, Belconnen Arts Centre and Goulburn Regional Art Gallery; taught Book Arts at the National Art School; and currently works for the National Portrait Gallery.
