Women and Other Demons
September 27 @ 6:00 pm - November 10 @ 4:00 pm
Maria Pia Mosquera is a Colombian-born artist based in Sydney. Rooted in the aesthetics of medieval and Latin-American colonial art, her work wryly re-imagines the contemporary world through the lens of religious iconography, mythology and folklore, vestiges from a time when the power of the supernatural to intervene in our lives was taken to be self-evident.
Making use of oneiric imagery that challenges the macabre with whimsical humour and invites reflection on our everyday lives, the paintings in this exhibition re-imagine depictions of women in ancient stories in order to engage with contemporary society, which is only beginning to reckon with the misogyny that drives persistent violence against women.
Opening night: Friday 27 September, 6-8pm
