Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery is delighted to present an exhibition of important historic works by Destiny Deacon. ⁠ ⁠ Opening reception: Saturday, 9 March 2024 from 4-6pm*⁠ Exhibition dates: 9 March – 6 April 2024⁠ *Please register your attendance to the opening reception via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Destiny Deacon is a descendant of the KuKu (Far North Queensland) and Erub/Mer (Torres Strait) people. Since the 1990s Deacon’s work has been primarily involved with performative photography, exploring Indigenous identity with often provocative and humorous imagery that mocks and satirises clichéd and racist stereotypes. Partly autobiographical and partly fictitious, Deacon’s work is an insightful comedy that is effective in establishing a discourse about political, Indigenous and feminist concerns.⁠ ⁠ Image: Destiny Deacon, ‘Dance Little Lady (c)’, 1994 - 2000, photograph, 70 x 56 cm, 90 x 76 cm (paper size).
