    Simryn Gill (B.1959) Was Born in Singapore and Lives in Port Dickson, Malaysia and Sydney, Australia

    EDUCATION RESOURCE INTRODUCTION TO THE EXHIBITION The exhibition is comprised of numerous thematic components. The 14 large black and white photographs comprising the ‘Sweet Chariot’ series recalls Chinese scroll paintings, and portray waves, skies, parts of land, and boats. They were taken on the Strait of Malacca from aboard a small fishing boat. One might imagine themselves in the photographer’s place, and see a similarity to the perspectives of fishing workers or mariners on one of the busiest trade routes in the world. Or, given the recent attention given to asylum seekers around the world in our news media, one might think of those viewpoints as similar to those seeking safety on new shores. The title of these photographs is also given to the exhibition. The phrase is derived from the African American spiritual song ‘Swing Low, Sweet Chariot’, with its associations of being carried home – perhaps an earthly home, or a heavenly one. Connections to ideas of migration, displacement, and searching for a better place are taken up indirectly. Another thematic comes via the series of relief prints of found materials, which are interspersed and sometimes grouped with the photographs. Installed around the gallery, the artist has deliberately created a horizon line with horizon in the photographs and the gaps in the prints all aligning. The relief prints, titled Pressing In (2016), are made by applying etching inks to various wooden surfaces including machine-made planks or broken slivers of handwrought timbers. These were made to serve specific functions but have been weathered and transformed by the sea, brought from unknown sources, and in some cases, drawn over and into by borers and insects.

    Artasiapacific: 21St Biennale of Sydney Announces Complete

    1/9/2018 ArtAsiaPacific: 21st Biennale Of Sydney Announces Complete Roster Of Artists ArtAsiaPacific Magazine Multimedia News Blog Countries About Shop DEC 13 2017 AUSTRALIA 21ST BIENNALE OF SYDNEY ANNOUNCES COMPLETE ROSTER OF ARTISTS BY MICHAEL YOUNG Mami Kataoka, the curator of the 21st Biennale of Sydney, with several of the biennial’s participating artists. Photo by Michael Young for ArtAsiaPacific. Mami Kataoka, the first Asian artistic director of the Biennale of Sydney (BoS) in the exhibition’s 45-year history and chief curator of the Mori Art Museum in Tokyo, revealed today that Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei will deliver the biennial’s keynote address on March 15, 2018, at the Sydney Opera House. Kataoka also confirmed that Ai’s politically charged installation Law of the Journey (2017), a 70-meter-long inflatable boat holding 258 faceless human figures, will fill the enormous, atmospheric Turbine Shop, located on UNESCO World Heritage site Cockatoo Island in the Sydney Harbour. Artspace, in Woolloomooloo, will show Ai’s Crystal Ball (2017), a sphere with a one-meter diameter, reflecting on the future of the world. The artist’s latest film, Human Flow (2017), which documents the plight of refugees, will receive its Australian premiere in Sydney in March. Kataoka stumbled over exactly what is meant by the biennial’s opaque name and curatorial premise, “Superposition: Equilibrium and Engagement,” but a mix of international stars including Haegue Yang and Tiffany Chung, along with many lesser known artists that will be shown at seven of the city’s exhibition spaces—the Art Gallery of New South Wales (AGNSW), the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, the Sydney Opera House, Artspace, Carriageworks, Cockatoo Island and the 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art—seems to promise a strong presentation.
