IASKA is a groundbreaking art organisation based on a unique idea: to run a cutting-edge program of exhibitions and residencies by distinguished contemporary artists in a remote rural community. IASKA’s gallery and studio space are located in the small town of Kellerberrin, 210 kilometers east of Perth, in the heart of the Western Australian Wheatbelt. Participating artists live and work in the town for periods of up to three months, interacting with the community and developing original artworks based on their experience of the place and people.
IASKA is an initiative without precedent in Australia. Our vision is to foster a dialogue that brings together the views of a rural microcosm with those of leading artists from all over the world.
We want to promote a synthesis of global and regional experiences in order to engender positive change and innovation at both artistic and social level.
