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.

We are open 10am–5pm. Our exhibitions are always free.

PLAY

PLAY

PLAY features the work of ten leading Australasian video artists who explore the relationship between the documentary aspects of video and its formal, fluid qualities to capture the performative elements of everyday life. These artists share an interest in the extent to which our personas are influenced by a consciousness of the omnipresent lens, and the persistent practice of ‘looking’ in contemporary society. PLAY is curated by Blair French and Sophie McIntyre, and is a collaborative project developed by Performance Space (Sydney) and Adam Art Gallery (NZ).
