Long Weekend

Penny Burnett, Amber Koroluk-Stephenson, Effie Pryer and Josh Simpson

The show explores new readings of painting through responses to the Australian cult horror film Long Weekend (1978). The works investigate and interpret the film’s concepts of environmental concern, Australian identity and horror. The exhibition further serves as a medium to develop the subtle hints of the sinister that lurk beneath the surface of each artist’s individual practice.

20 May – 6 June

Opening Drinks Sat 23 May 4-6pm
