Artist and researcher Dominique Chen (Gamilaroi) discusses making space for cultural ethics within institutional frameworks, and creative and collective futures.

The talk will be held as part of, and within Daniel Boyd’s current exhibition Rainbow Serpent (Version).

Daniel Boyd’s exhibition ‘Rainbow Serpent (Version)’ is accompanied by a program of talks, peformances, and workshops which take place on its expansive mirrored-stage installation.

The surface of ‘Untitled’ (2023) draws from the dot motif that is repeated in the artist’s paintings. Boyd considers these dots to act as ‘lenses’ through which audiences can access distinct points of knowledge, experience, or perspectives.

Casting a vast web of lenses across the gallery floor, the stage will be activated by First Nations collaborators throughout the exhibition, highlighting the plurality of First Nations cultures and worldviews, and creating space for a multitude of First Nations voices and histories.
