Queen Mother of the West goes beyond being an art exhibition; it is a critical cultural dialogue that encourages reflection on the past, engagement with the present, and reimagining of cross-cultural interactions.

N.Smith Gallery is thrilled to present Queen Mother of the West – Louise Zhang’s debut exhibition with the gallery.

Conscious of how cultural symbols have been exoticized by Western cultures, Louise’s new exhibition reclaims the aesthetics of oriental chinoiserie, transforming them again into a powerful medium of healing and self exploration as a Chinese-Australian artist. 

Two years in the making, Queen Mother of the West. includes an ambitious installation and an essay by Yuanyu Li.
