ZOONOSES Exhibition on view 20 May - 7 July 2022.
Is an immersive exhibition of contemporary multimedia work by respected Queensland artist Dr Nicola Hooper that engages with fairy tales, myths and rhymes and explores themes of the morality of human and animal relationships as they relate to the spread of zoonotic disease. ZOONOSES is a touring exhibition of works presented by Logan Art Gallery, Logan City Council, in partnership with Museums & Galleries Queensland. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program, and is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland, part of the Department of Communities, Housing and Digital Economy.
UnMasked' Exhibition by Sharka Bosakova on view 19 May - 11 June 2022.
Juxtaposing traditional with contemporary technologies, Sharka Bosakova presents mixed-media work featuring new body-centred technologies, facilitating a shape-shifting dialogue between 3D printed performative objects and visual body landscape. Creating a rich and engaging space designed to stimulate self-awareness, question norms and enhance our understanding of how masks define and outline our social engagement and embodied selfhood in the age of the #Selfie, pandemic and disasters.
