To Aug 7 দাদার খোঁজে Finding Dada by Anindita Banerjee – an interdisciplinary artist and “twice uprooted passenger Indian” living on the lands of the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation (Ballarat, Victoria). Her work interrogates ideas of cultural otherness, authentic identity, and the sense of home. This exhibition features photographic portraits of key male figures in Banerjee’s life, including from the Indigenous community in whom she finds reflections of her Dada’s (grandfather’s) facial features. She overlays these portraits with patterns reconstructed from memories of ritualistic ceremonies and mark making. While creating these gestural hybrid rituals, she wonders where her place is as an immigrant to the unceded lands of present-day Australia. Curated by Kira Godoroja-Prieckaerts.

To Aug 30 ROLLERCOASTER | winhangadurinya in motion by Brook Andrew. Through visual art, performance, research, and long-term collaborations, Andrew reveals and reimagines the legacies of power and representation that shape how histories are produced, circulated, and understood. This practice is informed by his perspectives as a Wiradjuri and Ngunnawal person, and by decades of engagement with archives and museums.

To July 18 A Way of Seeing by Askolds Petersons. Having followed his father into the discipline of architecture, portraiture became a vehicle for Askolds Petersons to free his storytelling through the medium of oil paint on canvas. With expressive strokes he captures the essence of each sitter, who is youthful in either spirit or body. Opening a dialogue on the production of portraits mediated by digital technology, these raw studio paintings sharpen our focus of reality – they are a way of seeing the world.
