At PICA we recognise that we are situated within the unceded lands of the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation. We pay our respects and offer our gratitude to Elders past and present, and to those emerging leaders in the community. We acknowledge all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and the importance of their care and continued connection to culture, community and Country.

Always was, always will be.

Galleries are closed until 7 February. Our exhibitions are always free.

PICA’s closing season for 2024 explores themes of identity, sexuality, intimacy, longing and desire. Featuring artists who reflect on their own personal stories and histories, this season foregrounds experiences of bodily encounter told through sensual imagery, materials, music, movement and light. The works on display balance playful and tender moments with instances of pain and tension, inviting audiences to consider the unfolding experience of time and fleeting yet monumental moments.
