broke is a collection of clay works made by local artist Isabelle McKenna during the Melbourne lockdown. It includes a collection of still lifes, figures, people, and objects that explore the theme of broke. The heart of the show is a playful take on brokenness and how we perceive that as a society. The term ‘being broke‘ can be interpreted in a multitude of ways and each object represents it in its own way. It is fitting that clay is the medium of choice, with its very nature being fragile.
