Sea Wolves Artists

This collection of handmade concertina-style artist books showcases the creativity and camaraderie of the Seawolves, a group of women united by their passion for cold-water swimming in Port Phillip Bay, every day of the year. Each book reflects a unique theme, with pages crafted by over 20 contributors, many of whom discovered unexpected artistic talent in the process.

These vibrant, humorous, and joyful creations celebrate the stories of resilience and connection that emerged during COVID, as the Seawolves howled their triumphs and troubles to the sky. We hope this exhibition inspires other community groups to embark on their own creative adventures.
