Idle Worship explores contemporary notions of reverence, worship and idolisation. The exhibition, curated by Natalie Bull & Zoë Robinson-Kennedy, focuses on personal manifestations and our need to look beyond the celestial and seek comfort in everyday deities and new-age idols.

Featuring artists working across installation, video, performance, sculpture, painting and textiles each artist attends to their private idol with idiosyncratic intent and treats them with a respectful recognition of something perceived to be greater than the self.

Artists: Jacobus Capone, Consuelo Cavaniglia, Sarah Contos, Mikala Dwyer, Bill Henson, Lindy Lee, Adam Lee, Clare Milledge, Jonny Niesche, Frances Belle Parker, Shireen Taweel, Jodie Whalen and Paul Yore.

Intricate and far-reaching networks of communication and exchange occur beneath our feet. Worlds of relationship, chatter, barter and life, hidden in the dark cavities of soil under our lawns and roads. Invisible to the eye, like love and fear, the inter-woven ecosystems in our forests and the natural world, echo the unseen connections that bind us all.

The Dark Sublime, is an ode to the shadowed beauty and crucial relevance of forests and what lies beneath the surface.

Emma Walker is a Northern Rivers based artist. Her abstracted landscapes are multi-layered, and as much about the medium of paint and the process of painting as with an experience of nature. They explore the connections between the natural world, memory and the subconscious through texture and the interplay of light and dark.

Open Air is a project produced by media artist Grayson Cooke in collaboration with painter Emma Walker, and with the music of The Necks. Through a partnership with Geoscience Australia, the project also uses Landsat satellite images of Australia from Digital Earth Australia.

This project seeks to creatively image the forces that shape the Earth. It uses aerial imaging on two vastly divergent scales to produce two different material manifestations of these forces. Firstly, the project features motion-controlled aerial photography of the paintings and processes of Emma Walker. Secondly, set against these painted landscapes are time-lapse images of Australia as seen by Landsat satellites.

This project was produced with the support of the Southern Cross University School of Arts and Social Sciences, and Geoscience Australia. Additionally, this project was undertaken with the assistance of resources from the National Computational Infrastructure (NCI), which is supported by the Australian Government.

Full duration: 1:08:21

‘My works attempt to become the shadow, or perhaps they originated from shadow. They are often about birth, love and death, where displacement, isolation, connectivity and separation are emphasised.’ JUMAADI

Jumaadi’s exhibition, Comes from the shadow, brings together a collection of works that are about birth and death. Life is there too, frail and fluid between these absolutes. The artist’s reference to “shadow” is metaphoric, through his exploration of the struggles of human existence, but it is also literal. One of his major influences is the Indonesian art of shadow theatre, or wayang kulit. Although there is darkness in the work, this is constantly offset by light, whimsy and humour. Jumaadi’s art is never about one thing. His iconography is endlessly evocative, seeming to embody one thing and its opposite all at once. Comes from the shadow is the epitome of this space of suspension, highlighting the relationship between opposites, and the confronting closeness of life and death.
