Visionaries 2026

Tali Roth is the 2026 Visionaries Curator.

Visionaries is Craft’s flagship exhibition series, designed to create meaningful pathways between Australia’s exceptional makers and the wider worlds of design, culture and everyday life.

Tali Roth is the founder and creative director of the award-winning Studio Tali Roth. For Visionaries 2026, Tali will curate an immersive presentation informed by her interior design practice in Australia and internationally.

“Part exhibition, part dream home, part love letter to Australian makers. I want it to feel joyful, immersive and impossible to leave uninspired”

– Tali Roth

The Visionaries series is an annual showcase of Australian art, craft and design, guest curated through the lens of one of the country’s most influential and forward-thinking creatives.

Developed to bridge the gap between exhibiting artists and meaningful real‑world opportunities, Visionaries extends creative practice beyond the gallery space. The series is designed to strengthen the cultural and creative ecosystem through a generative approach that supports and sustains Australian art, craft and design into the future.

Visionaries brings a fresh approach to cross‑industry collaboration, united by a shared commitment to creativity, innovation and connection. By generating active exchange between artists, makers and industry changemakers, the series creates new pathways for meaningful, long‑term investment in Australian creative talent.

The 2026 exhibition is the third iteration of the series and follows the two highly successful curatorial partnerships with Simone Haag and Joseph Gardner.
