For thousands of years, people have looked to the stars and the sky for mapping and wayfinding, to tell and share stories, and to try to understand our place in the infinite universe. Across different time periods and geographies, people have sought the spiritual through the celestial, and identified constellations to orientate themselves within something monumental and unfathomable. We are guided by the sun and the moon, through the changing light of day, and the rise and fall of the tides. This exhibition brings together six artists whose work considers our relationship to the cosmos, translating the immense scale of cosmic time and space into tangible moments.
Intimate Immensity includes new and recent work by Ali Bezer, Anastasia Booth, Sundari Carmody, Kinly Grey, Jenna Lee and Lisa Sammut. The exhibition is curated by Katherine Dionysius and Amy-Clare McCarthy.
