Echoes explores reverberations in the human experience. The exhibition brings together works by eight Australian artists who examine the idea of echoes in diverse ways. It presents works that uncover past lives, alter egos and feedback loops. The works unpack personal, social and cultural histories and considers the distortion and loss of memory over time. The works utilise repetition, surrealism, and abstraction to communicate the unstable and subjective way that we recall lived experiences and histories.
Echoes features artists who are actively invested in how the past informs the present. Spanning neon, textiles, concrete, bronze, painting and photography, many of the works consider physical materials as carriers of memory. The diverse artworks in Echoes evoke the senses and explore the interplay between enduring legacies and ephemeral experiences.
