Welcome Artist in Residence, Allis Hamilton!

Allis will be joining us in the E3 space for the next four weeks, and she’s excited to begin a new body of work, The Sight and Sound of You.

During her residency, Allis will be visited by four artists who inspired her as a young woman growing up in the district. She’ll begin creating impressions of these artists through both visual and audio portraits.

We’re looking forward to seeing and hearing how her work unfolds!

Stay tuned for updates on Allis’s residency and her work in progress. 👀🎨🎧✨

AFFORDING TRUTH features 14 artists from across the country whose work interrogates the muddy space of truth using affordances — the qualities of objects or environments that suggest or enable actions and interactions.

LAUREN DUNN addresses consumer trends and the imagery that fuels desire through hyperreal depictions and advertising methodologies, unpacking the codes of images, politics and power structures.

BADEN PAILTHORPE creates digital worlds of repetition, where technology both enhances and threatens human independence and autonomy.

Affording Truth is now on until 18 October 2026.
_ .australia

Affording Truth is a collaborative curatorial project between Wangaratta Art Gallery, Wagga Wagga Art Gallery and City of Moreton Bay Galleries curated by Rachel Arndt, Dr Lee-Anne Hall and Hannah Williamson. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body.
