Since our launch in 2018, Cement Fondu has proudly partnered annually with Studio A, supporting their artists to create newly commissioned installations. In 2024, we’re thrilled to present Studio A artist Meagan Pelham in our Project Space alongside main gallery exhibition, TMI (Too Much Information).

Meagan is a multidisciplinary artist practicing in painting, poetry, drawing and performance. She was selected as a finalist for the 2022 Archibald Prize with her watercolour portrait Romance is LOVE, depicting friend and collaborator Anna Plunkett of the Australian fashion label Romance was Born.

Her handwritten poetry practice is expressive and intimate, a prophecy of beautiful things and moments manifested on paper. Her verses recount spellbinding reveries of dinner dates, romantic getaways and dancing with a loved one. Pelham’s love poetry was featured at Cementa Festival 2022.
