Event Series: Holding The Shadow While Calling Back The Light

Holding The Shadow While Calling Back The Light

Feb 15 @ 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm

The exhibition foregrounds their current engagement with decoloniality; unpacking their settler heritages, neurodiversity and nonbinary identity, Holding The Shadow While Calling Back The Light is not intended to make sense.

As a process of sense-making – where hybrid identities, iconoclastic gestures, patchwork (visual) languages and amorphously gendered entities diffuse settled narratives – opening up spaces of unknowing, encouraging moments of contemplation, critical reflection and visioning in relation to the interconnected complexities of our contemporary, social and political landscapes.
