May 22 - July 12
Curated by Diane Soumilas
The exhibition explores the realms of history, cultural identity, migration, storytelling and the natural world, immersing the viewer in staged utopian landscapes, real and imagined mysterious dream worlds and local environments. The artists concerns with memory, personal history, cultural, colonial and natural history are investigated, traversing fictional dream environments and reality.
Presented in association with the 2015 Glen Eira Storytelling Festival.
