Maree Clarke is a key figure in the reclamation and revival of South East Australian Indigenous art, over a three-decade career. For Between Waves at the Australian Centre of Contemporary Art (ACCA), she’s created a wall of multicolour microscopic images of river reeds, that once grew on the wetlands where ACCA now stands, on Wuruendjeri Woi Wurrung land. She's one of ten artists from South East nations that curator Jessica Clark has commissioned to explore the "shapeshifting ecologies within, beyond, and between what can be seen".
Rosa visits the home studio of performance artist Ida Sophia. Ida's film recording of Witness, her emotionally intense durational performance of a staged water baptism, won one of Australia’s richest art prizes, the Ramsay Art Prize. Ida trained with the Marina Abramovic Institute and explains the background work that goes into her performances.
Frida Kahlo is one of the most recognised artists in history, but it’s easy to forget that in her own lifetime, Frida wasn’t well known for her painting. The exhibition Frida & Diego: Love and Revolution frames iconic Kahlo self-portraits alongside lesser-known works from key Mexican modernists, including her husband, muralist Diego Rivera. Magda Carranza is a curator of the Gelman Collection, where some of Kahlo’s most famous works reside.
