Alana Hunt

Alana Hunt (WA)
Host Partner: Kimberley Land Council, Kununurra

Alana Hunt makes art and writes and tries to find the most affective ways for this material to move in the world. It is long term relationships — with places and people and moments in time — that most inform how her work grapples with the violence and absurdities that result from the fragility of nations and the aspirations and failures of colonial dreams. Supported by the Sheila Foundation’s Fini Fellowship and The Copyright Agency, Alana is currently working on a super 8mm film that examines contemporary colonial life in the north – west of Australia. This will premiere at the Northern Centre for Contemporary Art in October 2023. Recent exhibitions include the Ramsay Art Prize at the Art Gallery of South Aust ralia, Photo Kathmandu, Kaghazi Pairahan: Publishing and Resistance in South Asia at DoubleDummy, Arles, Growing Like a Tree: Sent a Letter at Sunaparanta, Goa, and Every Inch: The Bureaucratic Affect in Colonisation at The Cross Art Projects, Sydney.
