Norton Fredericks: we/us/theirs/all

we/us/theirs/all is a major solo exhibition of new works by Murri artist Norton Fredericks that confronts our current epoch of catastrophe.

We are living through a liminal timeline between mass extinction and the collapse of empires. Historically, humans have endured such collapses before-we have remnants of past civilisations as evidence. But what will remain after our timeline? What do we want to rebuild after collapse, and how do we hold hope for future generations?

we/us/theirs/all explores material culture and pre-industrial crafts, examining the past while looking toward the future. The exhibition asks how we interact with our own dreams and hopes-how we contain and release them. How do we manifest collective change, and how do we enact it at a personal level?

This body of work employs historical craft techniques handed down from person to person for thousands of years, belonging to peoples of the past, unforgotten in our hands. The exhibition includes talismanic amulets, votive offerings, handwoven textiles, cast sigils, bronze sculpture, and ceramic vessels.

we/us/theirs/all is dedicated to the indomitable human spirit.

This body of work has been supported in part by Home of the Arts (HOTA), Here and Now: Gold Coast Triennial, and the Artisan Residency Program.
