This is the first major institutional solo exhibition by Katy B Plummer, harnessing and subverting the high-culture possibilities of Opera to navigate, through Folk Horror, to the cultural wounds of colonisation. The project explores possibilities of Artificial Intelligence as oracle, witchcraft as feminist framework, and the troubling gifts that are sometimes passed down through families. The exhibition includes a number of sculptural works and textile pieces but the centrepiece is a 60-minute Opera filmed here which stars the artist’s own sister Margaret Plummer, a Mezzo Soprano for the Vienna State Opera.

Accordion Content Container Title: Leanne Tobin ‘Memories of Water’

This is Dharug woman Leanne Tobin’s first solo exhibition since her inclusion in the 2022 Sydney Biennale which explores past and present custodianship of the Georges River. Tobin will explore creation stories and contemporary use of the land surrounding the river, including personal stories that engage with Tobin’s family legacy. The exhibition features three key elements: a mural, video animation and a suspended glass work. The centrepiece will be a series of blown-glass eels suspended among the industrial architecture of the Switch Gallery.

This solo exhibition sees Eddie Abd create a major new video and sculptural installation work for the main Turbine Hall gallery. Her video works will fill the projection screens and will be her largest, and most high-profile exhibition to-date. This body of work builds on her research into the relationship between Syrian cross stitch embroidery and the silk industry in Syria and Lebanon in the 1800s as a method for exploring exchange, capitalism and hybrid cultural identities through her practice. This solo exhibition is Abd’s first major project since receiving the NSW Visual Arts Emerging Fellowship and is the outcome of this significant support.
