Primavera: Young Australian Artists showcases the work of Australian artists aged 35 years and under annually at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney.
Curator Lucy Latella brings together five artists who consider the possibilities of cultural connection in the face of social, political and geographical challenges.
Through acts of exchange with family, community and technology, Teresa Busuttil (SA), Chun Yin Rainbow Chan (陳雋然) (VIC), Aidan Hartshorn (ACT), Monica Rani Rudhar (NSW) and Sarah Ujmaia (VIC) question how cultural identities are shaped and held, and how they continue to evolve with each generation.
“The artists in Primavera 2024 draw on a range of media to connect with their culture, community and family, and bring to the fore that which has been concealed or overlooked. Their diverse works highlight that culture isn’t simply inherited, but formed in the present.”
