Australian Gothic

‘Australian Gothic’
Bondi Pavilion, August 1st – 7th 2016
Taking Arthur Boyd’s epic tapestry, Untitled (Shoalhaven Landscape) as its departure
point ‘Australian Gothic’ is an immersive installation that employs the macabre
theatrics of national politics. This new work by Dominic Kirkwood will recreate
Boyd’s work in the form of a eucalypt forest, which will be filled by the interjections,
shouts and murmurs from question time in Canberra. In this piece the Gothic is not
found out in the desolate landscape but in the isolation from within Australia’s inner
political psyche.
