Canberra Contemporary is pleased to present POWER – The Future is Here, the result of a collaboration between artist Dennis Golding and Torres Strait Island students from Alexandria Park Community School. Superhero capes were created during a 2020 workshop led by Golding as artist in residence through Solid Ground, a program supporting First Nations students through arts engagement. Students from Kindergarten to Year 12 designed their capes with iconography drawn from their lived experience and cultural identity.
As superheroes, Golding and his young collaborators are empowered and reminded of the strength of their culture in forming their identity and connection to Country. Together and individually, the capes critique social, political and cultural representations of contemporary First Nations experience.
A Solid Ground project with Dennis Golding and Alexandria Park Community School, curated by Kyra Kum-Sing, presented by Carriageworks and Blacktown Arts, and touring with Museums & Galleries of NSW. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government's Visions of Australia program.
