Join artist, writer, and curator Dr Greer Honeywill for an insightful talk on the making of Lost in Palm Springs, an exhibition that weaves together architecture, art, and the human condition.
In this talk, Dr Honeywill will share the stories, inspirations, and discoveries that shaped the exhibition, exploring themes of connection, place, and the enduring influence of modernist architecture. Drawing on her experiences during three research residencies in Palm Springs, California, Honeywill reflects on how the city’s unique architectural and cultural landscape became a lens through which to consider ideas of home, belonging, and creativity.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear directly from the curator behind Lost in Palm Springs and gain a deeper understanding of the vision that brought this compelling exhibition to life.
Please meet us at the front reception of the Ipswich Art Gallery from 2:50pm. We look forward to seeing you there.

Dr Greer Honeywill
Dr Greer Honeywill is an award-winning multidisciplinary artist, writer, researcher and curator. For three decades, she has explored human connectedness to the architecture of home, the theatre of the domestic, the poetry of the ordinary and the inescapable patterns of our daily existence. In her studio, the work of architects such as Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, Rudolph Schindler and Paul Rudolph have influenced her thinking and practice outcomes.
Honeywill lives and works in Melbourne. She holds a PhD in Fine Art from Monash University (2003) and a PhD in Art from the School of Creative Arts at the University of Tasmania (2015).
Her book, Lost in Palm Springs, published by Melbourne Books, tells the story of the exhibition's development between 2017 and 2019, influenced by three artist research residencies in Palm Springs, California.
