Collaborative art projects come to life at Art Gallery

Three regional artists have joined forces to use their interdisciplinary art practices to develop a new performance at the Wagga Wagga Art Gallery on Thursday and Friday next week (4 & 5 November).

Charles Sykes, Gregory Carosi and Jhi Rayner are developing the performance as part of Wagga Wagga Art Gallery’s Regional Artist Development (RAD) Residency program.

The residency program focuses on the development and mentoring of regional artists by providing recipients with a spacious studio environment to pursue their arts practice across a four-week period.

“There is a lot of excitement and anticipation as to how the three artists will transform an exhibition space into a cutting-edge theatre,” Art Gallery Director Dr Lee-Anne Hall said.

“The trio has worked solidly to produce a short theatrical performance, where the conversations with local people form the basis of a hilarious and relatable show.”
