Agus Wijaya: ‘Red Milk’
Thursdays to Saturdays, 11am to 5pm Thursday 13 November to Saturday 6 December
Free
Born in Cianjur, a small town in West Java, Agus Wijaya is an Indonesian artist of Chinese background who now lives and works in Sydney. His practice questions the constructedness of both personal and cultural self through digital abstraction, experimental sculpture and installation.
With reference to manifold cultural dimensions, he interrogates strategies of identification and dis-identification, power dynamics within socio-economic and political frameworks and the bridges and glitches between ways of knowing and seeing.
His works have been exhibited at the Insitute of Modern Art as part of the churchie and selected as finalists in Dobell Prize, Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize, North Sydney Art Prize, Fisher’s Ghost, Incinerator Art Award and the 68th Blake Prize at the Casula Powerhouse.
