Unbroken Gestures

Exhibition dates: 29 August - 29 September 2024

Discover the profound impact of rituals on culture, community and daily life.

This exhibition examines the profound impact of rituals on culture, community and daily life. It also explores the deeply personal ways individuals can create and enact their own ritual practices. Rooted in spirituality, social connections, politics and personal significance, rituals transcend daily routines—seamlessly blending into our lives and prompting nuanced discussions about their transformative potential.

Unbroken Gestures invites contemplation of the transcendent nature of rituals and the established sequences of actions that exceed our daily limits. It offers a philosophical journey, recognising how rituals profoundly alter our perceptions and essence. Explore these artistic expressions to reflect on the metaphysical dimensions of rituals and their enduring impact—prompting a deep re-evaluation of our experiences.

A Willoughby City Council exhibition co-curated by Faye Chen and Cassandra Hard Lawrie

Artists: Dacchi Dang, Shahroud Ghahani, WeiZen Ho, Mehwish Iqbal, Marikit Santiago, Phaptawan Suwannakudt, Jayanto Tan, Truc Truong and Katie Louise Williams
