MELT Art Exhibitions
Artistry and diversity on the walls of the Powerhouse.
Overview
MELT may be overflowing with fantastic shows, but the festival isn't just about the performance side of things. Simply take a look at the walls of the Brisbane Powerhouse, and you'll see what we mean. For the month of February, their foyers will play host to not one, not two, but three MELT art exhibitions.
In Lz Dunn's Reintroducing Joanna Jones, the life of the famous Melbourne drag queen becomes a fascinating film project. Ray Cook's If You Can’t Say Something Nice About Anyone, Come Sit Next to Me looks at the ever-changing face of queer culture. And then there's Tyza Stewart's Field of Untitle, which explores identity and gender through a series of self-portraits. Yes, this creative showcase lives up to its aims, highlighting not only artistry, but diversity too.
