Lincoln Austin: The Weight of Experience
Lincoln Austin, assisted by Artist Chelsea Jewell, presents a new, site-specific sculptural, tensegrity and light-based work The Weight of Experience. Suspended in the Atrium Gallery, a geometric form catches light and creates shadows, shifting and morphing throughout the day and night, overlayed with a colour-coded animation of transformed community-submitted poetry texts.
The Weight of Experience encourages audiences to reflect on the life experiences we each carry within us, and the Queer expe- rience of vigilantly reading and interpreting code to assess safety and belonging. This project is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland.
