Co-curating with Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery, Pacific Curator Joycelin Leahy will bring together artists from ten Pacific Island countries, to an exhibition that questions the present, highlights the now and draws viewers’ attention to what lies under leis, sunshine and the stereotype view of Pacific Islands as underdeveloped and creators of predominantly primitive art.
Living in a contemporary society that is culturally diverse and rapidly changing, means it is important that the Arts of these societies embrace and reflect these changes. Within this context the exhibition will showcase over 50 artworks by leading Pacific artists as never before been shown in any Australian Regional, State or National art galleries.
Pacific Storms is Pacific now.
