A Fremantle potter is celebrating the messy nature of the studio and mind in her new exhibition. Shupiwe Chongwe is opening her second solo exhibition, Always Messy, at the Piazza Gallery in Fremantle. Last year Chongwe held her first solo exhibition, Bedforms, at PS Art Space as part of the 2025 Perth Festival, and travelled to the remote Indian Himalayan area of Ladakh as a part of the Biennale exchange. “This exhibition is the culmination of a year of learning, challenge and emotional exploration through clay,” Chongwe said. It will run until February 2 at the Piazza Gallery in Fremantle from 10am to 4pm.
