Featuring artworks and documentation from the 2024 Celebrate Gungahlin Festival.
In Biraddali Dancing on the Horizon, now showing at Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA), Australian-Filipina artist Bhenji Ra explores pangalay—a dance form indigenous to the Tausug and Bajau peoples from the Sulu Archipelago and Sabah in the Philippines.
Shaped by the movement between histories and cultures, the work of Thai-born, Aotearoa-raised artist Sorawit Songsataya draws on mystery and plurality as a means of knowing the world. The artist is now showing at Australian Centre for Contemporary Art and Monash University Museum of Art.
Consuelo Cavaniglia’s sunny studio in an industrial area of Sydney’s inner west reflects the artist’s fascination with light. Her recent glass works, now showing at Chau Chak Wing Museum, play with apertures, shadows, reflections and transparencies.
In an interview with Louise Martin-Chew, Darrell Sibosado discusses his striking installation Ilgarr (Blood), currently on show as part of the 11th Asia Pacific Triennial, his major commission at the 24th Biennale of Sydney, and Illume, an upcoming collaboration with the renowned Bangarra Theatre.
For La Trobe University’s Biannual Façade Commission, artist Roberta Joy Rich brings the dark corners of archival material into the light. On the glass frontage of the La Trobe Art Institute in Bendigo, Rich has created a work using sound, image and text to explore the South African diaspora.
Queenslander Glen O’Malley stands as a key figure among a generation of photographers who depicted the domestic lives of Australians in the 1970s and 1980s. In an interview with Barnaby Smith, he discusses the landmark 1988 show Journeys North, and QAGOMA’s current exhibition Suburban Sublime: Australian Photography.
