Please join us for an insight into the creative practice of rising international art star, Devi Seetharam. For Devi’s Sydney Contemporary presentation, her first solo exhibition in Sydney, the artist has produced a suite of new paintings from her acclaimed Brothers, Fathers & Uncles series.
Of these works the artist remarks:
“These paintings reflect a world where men wield the authority to occupy public space, wrapped in their traditional white mundu, a symbol of their purity, that legitimises their self-granted sense of status and privilege. Women in their world are reduced to symbolic figures of beauty and desire. Objects that can be undermined with impunity.”
