Bundoora Homestead Art Centre

Horizons

June 25, 2014 - August 3, 2014

What does it mean to be a particular colour, race, sexuality or age in contemporary culture? Horizons presents a selection of work from Victorian-based Indigenous artists Peta Clancy, Bindi Cole, Elizabeth Liddle, Steaphan Paton, Steven Rhall and Peter Waples-Crowe.

Mixed media and photographic imagery explore themes of identity, hybridity, gender and race. Explorations of the body and skin, family, ceremony and symbology culminate in this thought provoking exhibition.

This exhibition is presented by Bundoora Homestead Art Centre and the City of Darebin in acknowledgement of NAIDOC Week July 6-13, 2014.
