Me, Also Me
Gallery 01 | Until 8 Dec

Me, Also Me explores the contradictory elements of life through two video installations by Ayoung Kim and Daisuke Kosugi alongside Brett Whiteley’s The American Dream which trouble the distinction between reality and fiction. The exhibition includes additional works from the Collection that employ tropes of mirroring, doubling, imitation and transformation to map the contours of our uncannily labile selves, featuring artists like Farah Al Qasimi, Ian Burn, Tracey Moffatt, Yasumasa Morimura and Maria Taniguchi.

Balancing Act
Gallery 02 | Ongoing

Our story is not one story, but many stories to share.

Balancing Act features Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander works of art from the State Art Collection. In this exhibition, you will encounter a vast range of material revealing the wide scope of First Nations truth-telling and art-making practice. Radical observations about the ups and downs of life are placed side by side with expressions of relationships with Custodial Country. Balancing Act invites you to be surprised, delighted and challenged by the stories told through the eyes of First Nations artists and their works of art.
