Billy Bain, Stolen Land (detail), 2024. Ceramic sculpture with underglaze, glaze and metallic lustres, fabric and wood.
Join Verge in celebrating the opening of You're Welcome?, featuring artists Serwah Attafuah, Moztafa Azimitabar, Billy Bain, Gosha Heldtz, Jacquie Meng, and Heath Nock.
Curated by Dharug artist Billy Bain, You’re Welcome? explores the ways in which a group of young Sydney-based artists form, express, and interrogate the contradictory ideas of what it means to be welcome in 'Australia’.
Running concurrently with Invasion Day and The University of Sydney’s Welcome Week, You’re Welcome? celebrates and platforms these artist’s unique stories and perspectives — from the political to the surreal and humorous.
Drinks and pizza provided.
All welcome.
