Raquel Ormella interview link in bio ❤ #justletitgo #Repost @ocula.art (@get_repost) ・・・ 'I've noticed there are a lot of descriptions of my practice at the moment that combine the words 'art' and 'activism'. I do feel like I can't really wear that mantle anymore. Other people have taken that up. It's not that I don't think that I'm active; it's more what my work is really about reflecting on what activism is, and how that is manifested.' – Raquel Ormella in conversation with Ocula contributor Jane O'Sullivan, link in bio.

〰🌊 Earmarked 🌊〰 Enjoyed the install of the Christian Thompson survey at @unswgalleries. Lots of video works. Only one had headphones, and that was a work featuring opera singers and not Thompson. Everything else floated in the space, the sounds all mingling and overlapping #soundscapes #videoart #christianthompson #ritualintimacies #unswgalleries ...Closes 14 July

💁📝 7 Habits of Highly Failing People 📝💁 Michael Lindeman says thanks/get stuffed in a work filled with crumpled rejection letters. There are about 80 different letters in here, which he's copied to really bulk it out and take over the room. Weirdly good to see this. I've had my fair share of rejection letters this year. I know that trying and failing is better than not trying and failing but yeah it's a bit of a grind #thanksbutnothanks #materialpuns #letters #letterwriting #artlols #bubblewriting #textart #MichaelLindeman #australianartist #sydneyart #Sullivanstrumpf ...Closes 4 August
