About

Delve deeper into QAGOMA exhibitions and displays at the monthly Members lecture.

Rosie Hays, Associate Curator, Australian Cinémathèque, shares a preview of the upcoming ‘Contraptions’ exhibition and cinema program. The exhibition considers how artists use machines for play, experimentation, and hands-on exploration of ideas. While digital production dominates today’s world, many artists remain captivated by the mechanical and handmade nature of analogue contraptions. The selected works reflect on humanity’s relationship with technology, using whimsy and absurdity to conjure unexpected encounters that shift our perception of the world.
