‘It’s hot’… it’s a saying we are all familiar with. In Australia, as the climate changes and our summers get warmer, how do we prepare to face the heat?
In Swelter, Australian artists consider how heat affects our bodies, our communities and our planet. New commissions and existing works share different perspectives of the effects of heat on the body and how to beat it.
