From Rubble to Resistance: the 2024 Members Exhibition

من الركام إلى المقاومة

From Rubble to Resistance

What do you do when all that is left is rubble? How do you rebuild, make art, be creative in the face of destruction? Whether it’s cyclones or war, rubble keeps accumulating, emotional and physical.

This year we invite artists of all disciplines to examine the spectrum of human experience, give voice to your passions and challenge yourselves to approach your practice in a new way.

Consider and explore resilience and resourcefulness, whether it’s about rebuilding after Cyclone Tracy, the aftermath of the vote for the Voice, the genocide in Gaza, or the Anthropocene we find ourselves in.

We encourage you to make new work, reflect on the interpersonal and community relationships, give voice to what is important to you, and consider the value of creativity in the face of ruination.
