What to Expect
Step inside an exciting new residency project that invites you to experience art in unexpected ways. Artist in Residence Renee Kire transforms the Museum of Brisbane’s entryway with vibrant vinyl graphics and sculptural timber elements. This immersive pathway stretches across walls and ceilings, guiding visitors into the heart of the Museum.
Drawing inspiration from Minimalism and reinterpreting it through a contemporary feminist lens, Kire’s work highlights the often-overlooked contributions of women in art. The bright, colourful, and welcoming artwork offers a joyful yet thought-provoking experience for all ages.
Responding to the architecture of the Museum, City Hall, and Brisbane cityscape, the installation reveals unexpected connections between the built environment and abstract form. Repetition, rhythm, and thoughtful details encourage visitors to slow down and discover new perspectives.
