Published to accompany the exhibition of the same name, Lisa Gorman + Mirka Mora: To breathe with the rhythm of the heart, aligns the work of two pioneering and ground-breaking Australian artists whose practices traverse generations and medium; intersecting at two iconic moments in Australian art and fashion history.

Celebrating the artists shared love of colour, illusion, other worldliness, and experimental modes of production, while highlighting the pivotal role fashion and textiles played in their daily lives, the book puts into dialogue select garments from the Gorman label’s iconic 2016 and 2018 GORMAN X Mirka collaborations, together with rarely exhibited embroideries, beloved soft sculptures, and seldom before seen paintings directly from the Estate of Mirka Mora, alongside sculptures by Lisa Gorman, drawing inspiration from the two fundamental components of weaving, the warp and weft.

The book features essays by Senior Curator Fashion and Textiles at the National Gallery of Victoria, Katie Somerville, Artist and Academic, Sera Waters, alongside a Q&A between artist Lisa Gorman and Exhibition Curator and Director of the Warrnambool Art Gallery, Aaron Bradbrook.
