MUTANTS
A Blue Lobster Collaboration
23 June - 16 July 2023
Em Frank (Mparntwe/Alice Springs) and Tarzan JungleQueen (Garrmilla/Darwin) come together in celebration of bodies and beings that mutate and deviate. Combining collage, perspex, printing and ceramics, this collaboration pays homage to the strange, abnormal and freaky among us, who question convention, embrace queerness and fluidity, inspire wonder, and carve out space for the so-called monsters and mutants that dwell in the shadowy underbelly of mainstream society.
Exhibition opening
Friday 23 June | 5.30 - 7.30pm
With guest speaker & poetry reading.
The Tactile Arts bar will be open and snacks are provided. Come and celebrate the new exhibition in the Tactile Arts Gallery.
Workshop
MUTANTS
A Blue Lobster Collaboration
Saturday 24 June | 1 - 4pm
Join NT artists Tarzan JungleQueen and Em Frank as we dive into the mutant pit to make some weird and wonderful terracotta plant pots! In this 3 hours workshop you will learn how to coil-build a ceramic pot and decorate it using an underglaze transfer printing technique. Your creations will be fired by the instructors and made available for collection after the workshop.
In partnership with Top End Pride.
