Semi-Permanent Sydney hosted the global launch of ‘Cube’ a collaboration between Semi-Permanent and Google, exhibitions, installations, screenings and workshops, including a D&AD hosted discussion between trustee Tom Uglow and multi award winning UK based artist Kate Moross.

Speakers included a line up of artisans from all over the world including: acclaimed director Mike Mills, former global creative director of Wieden & Kennedy John Jay, Cheryl Dunn, Ben Lowy, Tara McPherson, Paul Belford, MAUD + Henry Wilson, Toby + Pete, Curvy panel (including co-founder Melissa Bergin, Elke Kramer, Claire Martin + Kelly Thompson).

STUDIO Goes to Semi-Permanent showcases inspiring creative minds and offers a rare insight into how they’ve become successful doing what they love. There’s also a look at the numerous exhibitions, installations and workshops that make up the three-day event.

Says Murray Bell, executive producer/Semi-Permanent co-founder: “Semi-Permanent Sydney 2014 was a special event for us. We moved to a beautiful new venue, added an extra day to the schedule, tripled our attendance and created an event that included exclusive talks, exhibitions, installations, workshops, film screenings and parties, all on-site. And what better way to document the event than by producing a TV show with SBS.”

Says Justin Drape, executive producer/The Monkeys co-founder: “It’s been a unique and rewarding experience to help with the creative direction of Semi-Permanent this year and having Studio and SBS capture the event for broadcast is an ideal opportunity to share what it’s all about with others.”
