Isaac Chong Wai at the exhibition A Moment in Extended Crisis (23/04/2024)
A Moment in Extended Crisis, curated by Andy Butler, brings together artists who track histories and contemporary resonances of movement and migration that occur against the backdrop of large scale political upheaval. The artists in the exhibition approach and process the intimate and personal worlds that are left in the long shadows of revolution, military interventions, exile, and emigration to the west. The exhibition asks how we carry these legacies across time and space, and how our current political worlds hold the traces of individual and collective experience.
International and intergenerational in scope, A Moment in Extended Crisis will premiere work in Australia from Jane Jin Kaisen, Prima Sakunthabai, and Isaac Chong Wai, alongside new commissions and recent and historic works from Australian artists Nathan Beard, Sarah Ujmaia, and John Young. The exhibition will run between April 23 and June, 28 2024 at UTS Gallery, Sidney.
