LA-based Australian artists and Samstag Scholar (2004) Jemima Wyman’s (Palawa) practice is a visually and politically charged exploration of camouflage, collective organising, democracy and dissent. This survey exhibition of Wyman’s work spans decades. Known for her vivid, kaleidoscopic hand-cut collages drawn from her extensive archive of found photographs documenting global protests, Wyman’s complex, maximalist environments channel the upheaval, uncertainty, and distress of protest into a hypnotic and rhythmic harmony of patterned surfaces.

Presented in partnership with QUT Art Museum & UNSW Galleries.
