SUMMARY:Season 4 // Artist Talks & Opening Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us at NorthSite Contemporary Arts to celebrate the opening of two new exhibitions\, bringing together three artists who explore our relationship with place\, culture\, community and the changing world around us. The afternoon will feature artist talks by Tia Adoberg\, Melissa Waters and Georgina Hutchinson\, offering an opportunity to hear directly from the artists about the ideas\, experiences and processes behind their work. \nOfficial Opening | 1:15pm \nMelissa Waters & Georgina Hutchinson | Natures’s Dialogue – Shifting Views | Artist Talks 1:30-2:15 \nNature’s Dialogue – Shifting Views explores the Australian landscape as a living archive\, where fragments\, textures and scars left by fire\, flood and natural cycles form an unknown visual language. Through aerial perspectives\, the artists invite us to slow down and decipher these traces as records of memory\, regeneration and change\, while reflecting on our responsibility to care for a rapidly changing environment. \nTia Adoberg | The Slipping World | Artist Talk 2:30pm \nThe Slipping World explores release\, resilience and the ways we navigate an increasingly chaotic world. Inspired by the energy of late nights\, music\, hospo culture and our social landscapes\, this series of oil paintings captures fleeting moments of youth\, movement and connection emerging from darkness. \nWe invite you to stay with us throughout the afternoon\, explore both exhibitions and join the artists in conversation\, please RSVP below for catering purposes – we look forward to celebrating with you! \n﻿

SUMMARY:The Ghosts of Lani Mulgrave Blair // Opening Event
DESCRIPTION:Join NorthSite Contemporary Arts for the public opening of The Ghosts of Lani Mulgrave Blair\, a major new exhibition curated by Henrietta Marrie AM and Andrea Bubenik. \nOur opening program begins with a Welcome to Country\, followed by opening remarks and a short screening of Lani by Demons Land Collective\, followed by a curator-led exhibition walk-through and informal refreshments. Guests are invited to experience this powerful exhibition alongside the curators\, artists\, and project team\, and to share in conversations that honour Yidinji history\, resilience\, and cultural continuity. \nWe can’t wait to see you\, please RSVP below for catering purposes. \n﻿﻿﻿ \nAbout the Exhibition\nThe Ghosts of Lani Mulgrave Blair marks 150 years of resilience\, resistance\, and cultural survival for the Yidinji Nation since the colonial occupation of Gimuy/Cairns. As part of a year-long program of events\, the exhibition invites audiences to walk alongside Yidinji leaders and community members as they reclaim history through storytelling\, language revitalisation\, and the enduring presence of cultural knowledge\, objects\, and traditions. Bringing together historical archives with contemporary artistic practice\, the exhibition offers a profound reflection on memory\, identity\, and the ongoing work of cultural restoration. \nAt the heart of the exhibition is the story of Lani Mulgrave Blair (1883–1900)\, a Yidinji boy taken from the Mulgrave River during a period of violent frontier conflict and trafficked to Melbourne\, where he was raised within colonial society. His story survives through photographs\, newspaper accounts\, paintings\, and monuments\, but also through Yidinji oral histories and the living knowledge of Country. Through new works by Yidinji artist Paul Bong\, Jaymen Drahm\, the experimental film Lani by Demons Land Collective\, and Carl Fourmile‘s evocative sound work Yidinji Lament\, the exhibition returns Lani’s story to Yidinji Country\, confronting the legacies of colonisation while celebrating the enduring strength\, sovereignty\, and continuity of Yidinji culture.

DESCRIPTION:NorthSite Contemporary Arts and Padepokan Seni Bagong Kussudiardja (PSBK) present a special screening of Sitting with the Sea (Dialog Lensa #6) — an immersive experience in image and live sound. \nPhotographer Vickram Sombu (Photographer and filmmaker from Kupang\, East Nusa Tenggara) shares images created during his time with the community of Lamalera in East Nusa Tenggara\, tracing their profound connection to Mother Sea (Ina Lefa). Developed with Yogyakarta-based photographer and curator Kurniadi Widodo\, the work journeys across oceans from Lamelera to Yogyakarta to Gimuy/Cairns\, carrying stories of culture\, survival\, and reverence. \nAustralian mulitdiscipinary artists Melania Jack and Patty Preece (The Ironing Maidens) build upon Sombu’s photography to create a live\, immersive soundscape that dissolves the boundaries between stage\, performer\, and audience.  Sound and light moves through the space\, inviting multiple perspectives and shared presence. \nPresented at the Tanks Arts Centre by NorthSite in April 2026\, this event celebrates an ongoing cross-cultural exchange between Far North Queensland and Yogyakarta.  \nSit together. Absorb the images. Listen deeply. Experience a story that invites empathy\, connection\, and community.

Through projections\, sculptures\, paintings\, and paper cuttings\, it invites visitors into an environment shaped by the landscapes of Tokyo and Cairns\, where transformation and renewal are constantly in motion. Artists Tetsuya Tabata and Mariana Verdaasdonk merge their complementary practices to create a contemplative space that celebrates cycles of change\, growth\, and rebirth.  \nSunshine Noir | Hannah Murray \nSunshine Noir explores the dynamic tension and interdependence between light and shadow\, reflecting the paradoxes of tropical life where beauty and darkness coexist. Influenced by Dutch still life\, Ukiyo traditions\, and Surrealism\, the works blur reality and imagination through layered\, unexpected still-life compositions drawn from Far North Queensland. Using vessels\, glassware\, and tropical flora and fauna as metaphors\, the series reflects on ephemeral beauty and the impermanence of life and the natural world.  \nDialog Lensa 1&2: ‘SERAKAH’ & ‘BERSIAR SINAR’ Special Screening and Performance\nNorthSite Contemporary Arts and PSBK present a special screening of SERAKAH and BERSIAR SINAR\, highlighting an ongoing cross-cultural exchange between Far North Queensland and Yogyakarta. This event celebrates a growing partnership supported through Artslink’s Regional // Regional initiative and shares early works from the Dialog Lensa platform. It also offers audiences a glimpse into the development of Dialog Lensa #6\, which will continue to evolve through this multi-year creative connection. Together\, these screenings invite Cairns audiences to experience powerful performative works that merge photography\, performance\, sound\, and moving image while contributing to a rich and expanding artistic dialogue between the two regions. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Season 2 // Artist Talks & Opening Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebrating our second opening series of the season\, with exhibitions by four incredible female artists; Matilda Nona\, Sue Healy\, Hannah Parker and Melody Woodnutt. \n10am – Doors Open \n11:30am – Artist  Talk | Hannah Parker Abstract Landscapes \n12pm – Artist Talk | Melody Woodnutt The Apparition \n12:30pm– Artist Talk | Sue Healey ON VIEW: ICONS \n1pm – Official Opening and Acknowledgements \n\nAshleigh Campbell\, CEO NorthSite Contemporary Arts\nHenrietta Marrie\, AM\, CIAF Co-Patron\nGuest Speaker – Cathy Hunt\, Executive Director\, WOW Australia \n\n2pm – Artist Talk | Matilda Nona Bupungu \n2:30pm – Free Performance | Melody Woodnutt \nRSVP for this event here. \n  \nPerformance details: Untitled (Opening Act)\nDuration 23 mins \nA short performative evocation to illuminate the exhibited death shroud. The shroud is intended to be an apparition emergent from a long buried boat ruin. The sound\, lighting and 16mm film work together to expand this apparition and create a portal into a speculative other world — one which is conjured for an unfinished boat ruin that never saw the sea. \nIn its heart\, the artwork acts to offer a radical optimism that objects of persistence (material\, societal\, political) can undergo change through the constructive efforts of transfiguration. \nThis transfiguration allows a familial boat ruin to reach a poetic\, new material form after the original boatbuilder’s death. \nPerformance Credits: Concept and Sound: Melody Woodnutt | Lighting Design: Lara Gabor | Violin: Adam Cadell | Percussion: Melody Woodnutt and Zela Papageorgiou | Additional Music track “Faster Than Cold” by Lawrence English and Philip Samartzis. Original Boat fragment by Frank Woodnutt.\n\nThis exhibition and opening performance is supported by the University of Melbourne Faculty of Fine Arts and Music and the VCA Foundation.
