Loaring Studios

We’re Jody and Ben, West Australian contemporary artists documenting the creation of a new artist studio and creative sanctuary in Augusta, on the banks of the Blackwood River (Tallinup). 

After fifteen years in the Kimberley, we’ve returned to the rugged Southwest where we first started making work.This channel follows our journey of coming full circle, shaping a space for craftsmanship, teaching, and contemporary Australian art. Our work has always been a conversation with the place we call home. 

As a Michelangelo Foundation Master Artisan and Homo Faber Guide recommended artist, Jody’s focus on mastery is woven into our daily work. Here, we share that process as it unfolds; a practice where raw material, art, and life meet through sculpture, painting, and the deep act of making.

Follow along as we realise a duo artisan studio and open this space over time.
