UNLEASHED+

UNLEASHED has been instrumental in shaping Queensland's craft and design landscape for over two decades. It's where early-career makers and designers get noticed by leading national curators, collectors and experts. Where local goes national. Where potential becomes realised.  Since 2004, artisan's UNLEASHED has been Queensland's premier platform for launching early-career craft and design practitioners. This biennial exhibition has become more than a showcase — it's a career-defining moment that has propelled some of our state's most exciting makers and designers onto the world stage.  UNLEASHED+ 2026 represents a significant evolution, with this iteration exhibited in collaboration with HOTA, Home of the Arts, on the Gold Coast.
