Dean Cross works across the sculptural and pictorial fields, we discuss his efforts to re-evaluate and re-construct what it means to be a 21st Century Australian, and how that fits within our globalised world.

We also touch on his efforts to secure a "degree worth doing" for future students following the Sydney College of Arts merger/changes.
