Louise Zhang and Jessica Bradford: See You in Hell: Wagga Wagga Art Gallery

See You in Hell presents a collection of playful and subversive works by artists Louise Zhang and Jess Bradford exploring Chinese concepts of the Afterlife. Diyu, the Chinese Buddhist concept of Hell, is both a starting point and a meeting place for the artists to explore personal experiences and complex relationships to their shared Chinese cultural heritage as ‘third culture kids’. The exhibition is a bridge between these two practices and includes individual series and collaborative works. Audiences will journey through the exhibition space encountering various Hellscapes and mythology presented in painting, sculptural installation and video.

 

This exhibition is supported by CreateNSW.

 

Official launch takes place on 16 December.
