Mythologies
September 5 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
An event every day that begins at 10:00 am, repeating until September 27, 2024
Mythologies places Petrina Hicks’ photographs in conversation with a suite of sculptures by leading Perth-based contemporary artist Abdul-Rahman Abdullah, whose work similarly delights in chimerical forms, folkloric allusions, and beguiling encounters between humans and animals.
Petrina Hicks is a pivotal figure in contemporary Australian photography, with a broad impact that extends to Western Australia through exhibitions and cultural influence. Her work challenges conventional perceptions and engages audiences with its striking aesthetic and profound thematic depth.
While Petrina Hicks is not based in WA, her relevance to WA can be understood through her work being featured in exhibitions in Western Australia, contributing to the state’s vibrant art scene and providing local audiences access to high-caliber contemporary photography.
Abdul-Rahman Abdullah’s work often features realistic, life-sized sculptures that engage with his experiences as a Muslim Australian. He was born and raised in WA, and his experiences growing up in this region significantly shaped his artistic vision. His works often reflect WA’s landscapes, social dynamics, and cultural tapestry.
Abdul-Rahman Abdullah is a significant figure in contemporary Australian art, with a profound impact on the cultural landscape of Western Australia.
