Step inside an exciting new residency project that invites you to experience art in unexpected ways.
Artist in Residence Renee Kire takes over Museum of Brisbane’s entryway, transforming these spaces with a vibrant and dynamic mix of striking vinyl graphics and sculptural timber elements. These features create an immersive pathway that stretches across walls and ceilings, guiding you into the heart of the Museum.
Drawing inspiration from Minimalism while reinterpreting the movement through a contemporary feminist lens, Kire brings fresh attention to the often-overlooked contributions of women in the field. Bright, colourful and welcoming for all visitors, the artwork is both joyful and thought-provoking.
Responding directly to the architecture of the Museum, City Hall and the Brisbane cityscape, Kire’s design reveals unexpected connections between the built environment and abstract form. Repetition, rhythm and thoughtful details invite you to slow down, look closely and discover new perspectives.
What to Expect
Visitors will be immersed in a vibrant artistic experience that transforms the Museum’s entryway into a dynamic visual journey. Expect to encounter bold vinyl graphics and sculptural timber elements that interact with the space in creative ways.
The artwork celebrates feminist perspectives within Minimalism, offering a fresh and engaging viewpoint that is both accessible and thought-provoking for all ages. It’s a joyful celebration of art that invites reflection and discovery.
