Artist talk: Andrew Robards
Sunday 21 June @ 11AM
71 Angus Avenue, Kandos

Meta-characters and Australian Myth: Cinematic Embodiment in the Australian Landscape

This talk explores how Australian artists and filmmakers reimagine cultural archetypes through the figure of the mythic “outsider.” Rather than fixed historical identities, these meta-characters shift through performance, repetition, and reinterpretation, revealing national mythology as something continually constructed and re-embodied.

Robards draws on examples from early cinema to contemporary art, including The Story of the Kelly Gang (1906), Shame (1988), Mad Max (1979), Cyborg Ned (2003), Apologies 1–6 (2007–2009), and Sydney Nolan’s Ned Kelly Series. This talk traces how these outsider figures are embodied across the screen, its history and landscapes.

I AM NED KELLY

Robards has fragmented, dissected, reinvestigated, redrawn imagery from the Kelly Gang (1906) and brought it into 2026. Shapes, lines, themes that are so distinct in the Australian mythologies.

Wayout is open this weekend, Saturday and Sunday. 10 - 2, 71 Angus Avenue Kandos.

The story of the Kelly Gang has developed into something of a legend.

Through moving drawing, the moving image, AI processes, material transformation and acts of repetition, Robards reimagines the history and brings it to life in the 21st century.
