Moving

Moving brings together works by Hannah Brontë, Katthy Cavaliere, Lottie Consalvo, Dennis Golding, David Greenhalgh, Wade Marynowsky, Ida Sophia and Jodie Whalen exploring the dynamic intersection of water, performance and the moving image. The exhibition considers water as subject, medium and metaphor. It celebrates durational works that observe water’s capacity to carry emotion, hold memory and reflect lived experience.

The works featured utilise elements of performance art, through actions and perspectives that engage the body and time in unique ways. Artists embrace tenets of performance, with many directly featuring the body, voice, or gesture. Other works convey lived experience through language, layered imagery, and intimate visual detail that echoes human perception and sensory encounters.

The exhibition features key moving image works alongside photographs, textiles and paintings that crystalise moments, distil gesture and translate meaning across media. Presented together in an immersive installation, these works allow audiences to consider how water, like time and the moving image, is both transient and persistent.

It has many thematic and emotional entry points for audiences, and the diversity of artists and mix of performance, playful and meditative works encourage repeat visitation and public programming opportunities for multiple audiences and ages.
