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

Quick Response Artist-in-Residence

Erin Ginty will develop her project diagrams for divination, a speculative ceramic installation that imagines a world where magic replaces the role of technology. Through the creation of ceramic devices, tools, gadgets and equipment that incorporate elements of the occult, she explores magical reasoning, ritualism and alchemy. In doing so she speculates how these methods could develop new perspectives on the looming threats of the Anthropocene.
