BETTER PLACES
Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA), Perth WA
4 DECEMBER 08 – 1 FEBRUARY 09
From the everyday reflex to suspect that the grass might be a little greener over our neighbourʼs fence, to the ambitious imaginings of utopias, this exhibition playfully explores our sense of hope and cynicism in the present, and our aspirations and dreams for a better place in the future. Featuring a range of established and emerging artists from across the country and New Zealand, this exhibition navigates the space between the world we live in, and the world we wish for.
