Art exhibition: Regional Futures: An Entangled Existence - group exhibition
-
Where: Basil Sellers Exhibition Centre, corner Vulcan Street and Murray Street, Moruya
Opening hours: Monday to Saturday, 10am – 4pm. Access from Murray Street after 12.30pm on Saturdays.
Regional Futures: An Entangled Existence explores the future of regional Australia through an intersectional feminist lens that draws inspiration from the landscapes and the socio-ecological fabric of our regions. The works in this exhibition have been created by female artists of different experiences and backgrounds, from across regional NSW, each creatively investigating the complex issues impacting our collective future from the perspective of those playing a critical role in shaping environmental, cultural, social and economic health.
In bringing these selected works together, there’s recognition of how different aspects of our social and political identity often influence the way we think about and experience the world, potentially resulting in discrimination and privilege.
The exhibiting artists are:
- Anna Glynn (Jaspers Brush)
- Laura Baker (Blayney)
- Tracy Luff (Goulburn)
- Jane Richens (Dungog)
- Joanne Stead (Tamworth)
- Tania Hartigan (Wallabadah)
- Kim V. Goldsmith (Dubbo).
Over 18 months in 2022-23, each artist explored issues at the heart of life in regional Australia, bringing their experiences of being women who love, live and work in regional communities to the task. Originally developed as part of the NSW Regional Arts Network’s Regional Futures project funded by Create NSW, this new iteration of selected Regional Futures works aims to continue the conversation and inspire hopeful actions.
