Maria Island National Park 2018

I have become very skilled at packing up my studio into a portable form and working in remote locations. In 2018 an Arts Tasmania grant enabled me to spend a month in winter on this island researching for new artworks.

Janine Combes spent one month in 2018 on Maria island, Tasmania, working on new ideas for her artwork. The residency was funded by Arts Tasmania and supported by the Parks and Wildlife Service Tasmania.

Deal island 2005 and 2009

In both 2005 and 2009 I was able to spend three months at a time as a Volunteer Caretaker for the Parks and Wildlife Service on this remote island in Bass Strait. While not a formal residency, I was able to set up a studio space and have dedicated studio time, which helped to start my career as a professional artist.

Janine Combes and her partner Laurie Cook spent 3 months on Deal island as volunteer caretakers in winter 2005. When not doing volunteer work janine was busy in her jewellery studio set up in the shed of the lighhouse precinct.
